Engaging Families and the Community in the Life of the school

Families are key partners in the education of their children. As an EL Education school, our staff work hard to make families welcome, we value their contributions and backgrounds, and we engage them actively in the life of the school. Our staff crew encourages families to be strong partners in their children’s learning.  

Ribbon cutting ceremony recognizing the new name, Conway Academy of Expeditionary Learning kicked off Back to school night.

Empowered Learner

Every week our student leaders are front and center as they lead our weekly Crew Spirit Celebration on the blacktop at 8:00am.  This is a key time for us to build community and invite all our families to join us Thursday mornings.  This is also a time to recognize students in all three areas, academic achievement, character development, and high quality work.  

Family Engagement

One of the best ways to stay informed of upcoming events, community resources, school communication and to be able to communicate directly with your students' teacher is via the EUSD app. If you haven’t already downloaded the app to your phone, we encourage you to do so. Simply search in your app store for

EUSD Escondido CA and you will see our

Escondido Union School District Logo.

In order to efficiently connect to Rooms on the EUSD app, you will need to verify and set up your account via edurooms.com/signup. Your student's teacher should be able to provide the instructions which will include a unique student “Magic Code” that will link you to your students teacher portal.

If you have any questions, or are having trouble getting connected, or simply don’t know how to get started, we invite you to attend one of our

Rooms Support sessions on the following date and times outside of room 1.

Monday 8/28

7:35 am - 8:30 am

2:25 pm - 3:00 pm

Wednesday 8/30

7:45 am - 8:30 am

2:25 pm - 3:00 pm

If these dates and times do not work for you, feel free to contact our family liaison Mrs. Maldonado and set up an appointment that works best for you.
