In accordance with local public health authorities and the San Diego Unified School District, City Heights Prep will remain closed between March 16th and the end of the 2019/2020 school year in order to curb the potential transmission of the coronavirus (COVID-19). In the meantime, we invite our families to familiarize themselves with the tangible tools and resilience strategies that they can use within their homes, and to look through our Operations Written Report and its approval from our Board (as further noted by our Director).
