Due to emergency conditions caused by mercury exposure, Reyburn Intermediate School and Clovis East High School were closed on Friday, January 12, 2018.

This Request for Allowance of Attendance Due to Emergency Conditions, Form J-13A, is used to obtain approval of attendance and instructional time credit when one or more schools are closed because of conditions described in Education Code Section 41422. The form requires a signed Affidavit of School District Governing Board Members acknowledging that the statement of this emergency is true.  The District will file the signed affidavit with the Fresno County Superintendent of Schools, who will forward the request for final approval by the California Department of Education (CDE).

The approval by the CDE for the emergency school day declaration allows the District to receive funding for ADA lost during the school closure. In addition, the approved J-13A forms, combined with other District records, serve to document the District's compliance with the instructional time laws. It is important to note that even with the closure, the District has maintained the minimum 180 instructional days as required by the State.
