Principal's Message
Dear Families and Guardians,
On behalf of the staff at Agua Caliente Elementary School, welcome to the 2026-2027 school year! I am very excited and honored to be the principal at Agua Caliente. I know all of our staff members are eager to welcome students to the new year. This is going to be a very exciting year as we continue to support all students moving towards academic success! I thank you for your commitment to your student's education and your support in making Agua Caliente a place where all students are Fair, Responsible, and Kind.
Please review the contents of this handbook, and of the Parent/Student Information Packet provided by the Palm Springs Unified School District. You will see references to the district packet in this handbook for sections that are particularly important for our students and families.
We look forward to a fun and exciting school year filled with wonderful learning experiences for your child. We appreciate your support and invite you to become involved in any way possible. It is the collaboration between our school, family, and community that makes Agua Caliente Elementary School such an outstanding environment for students to succeed.
Always remember you can contact your child's teacher, our school office, or get in touch with myself at eantuna@psusd.us or 760-416-8235 if you have any questions about school policies or procedures. I look forward to meeting you and celebrating your student's successes throughout the school year!
Many thanks,
Eric Antuna
Principal
