Students enrolling in LLESD from outside of the United States are also subject to the immunization requirements of the State of California and will need proper documentation of your child's immunization with English translation as necessary to verify the records.
Please note: Your child will not receive class placement until all state-required immunizations have been met.
Please see the Shots for School website for a guide to the requirements. For additional questions about the requirements, please call Las Lomitas School at (650) 854-5900 or La Entrada School at (650) 854-3962.
Data Collection

Data Collection
To help understand our students' social, emotional, mental, and physical health needs and examine trends over time, two primary health-related surveys are administered to students at La Entrada and Las Lomitas.
California Healthy Kids Survey
The California Healthy Kids survey is administered to students in grades 5 and 7 bi-annually in the fall. Questions include topics such as sleep hygiene, bullying, substance use, and physical activity. Responses are anonymous and confidential yet provide critical insight into school climate, student perceptions and beliefs, and student behavior. Aggregate data is provided to the school district in the spring, and results inform classroom lessons and program planning.
Panorama Survey
The Panorama survey is administered annually to students in grades 3-8 and to teachers of students in grades K-2. Questions address student belonging, social-emotional indicators, and school climate. Results inform classroom lessons and school- or district-wide program planning.
