Bell Schedules

2022-2023 Bell Schedule - A/B Schedule
In the 2022-2023 school year, school districts across the state must implement a later start time for middle and high schools.

In 2019, California Governor Gavin Newsom placed some restrictions on what time schools start at. This bill, known as Senate Bill 328, does not allow middle schools to start before 8 am, and does not allow high schools to start before 8:30 am.

On May 24, 2022, the Board of Education approved MPUSD's start times for middle and high schools. There is no change for elementary schools.
