Welcome Back, Eagles!

Dear Encinita Families,

Welcome back to the new school year! We are excited to welcome you back for the 2025-2026 school year. School starts at 8:00 am and dismisses at 12:00 pm for the first day. Aside from Late Start Wednesdays when school starts at 9:30 am, we expect all students to arrive no later than 7:50 am every day. 

Aside from persevering through distance learning, we have a lot to celebrate. This year, we are adding 5th grade to our Dual Language Mandarin Immersion (DLI) program, complementing our existing Mandarin DLI preschool and Kindergarten program. Recently, our school was recognized by the California PBIS Coalition with the Platinum Level Award for successfully implementing Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). Thank you to our entire RSD community for your continued support. Congratulations, Eagles!

Families and staff, we can’t thank you enough for all your support and partnership. You play an integral role in your child’s learning, and we look forward to our continued collaboration. We can’t wait to see you again! 

Respectfully, 

Dr. Jacqueline Duncan
Proud Encinita Principal
