Members of the community have asked how they can help students and staff members who have lost their homes in the recent wildfires. The Greater Los Angeles Educational Foundation is collecting funds to support fire relief efforts throughout LA County. Donors may designate funds for a SPECIFIC DISTRICT. To ensure funds are directed specifically to our local community, please make sure to designate your donation for the ALHAMBRA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT or ALHAMBRA USD (not just “AUSD”). CLICK ON THE HEADLINE to access the donation page. Thank you!

The California Department of Education has compiled resources for schools, families and students impacted by the 2025 California wildfires. The resources include crisis hotlines, school disaster and emergency management plans, information on J-13A forms and much more.

Join us for our AP/Honors Parent Information Night. You will learn about all the AP/Honors courses that are offered. It will be held Thursday, February 13, from 6-8 pm via zoom. Click on the headline for more information.

Wildfires are scary and can turn life upside down for a bit. Families may lose homes, schools, or
routines, and it’s natural for young people (and adults) to feel upset or overwhelmed. But with
the right support, young people can bounce back and grow stronger. Caregivers play a big role in
helping children through tough times by modeling positive coping skills and providing love and
stability.

Here’s how you can help your child cope and build resilience during and after a wildfire.
