Registration Process:
*Please note that the registration process between Foothill School, (our Main Site), and the Community Sites is different.

Foothill School – Registration is done in person on April 16, 2011, 8:00-9:30 am.,
at the Goleta Union School District Boardroom, located at 401 N. Fairview Ave., (across from Goleta Public Library). Applications are available on our website, at local preschools, libraries, and at Foothill School office. Please bring completed application along with check made out to Safety Town. You may register for no more than 2 children.

El Camino, Franklin, and Isla Vista Schools – Registration is by mail, or
at school office. Applications for registration and scholarship applications are available at these school offices beginning February 15, 2011, or by emailing annegsb@cox.net. Please mail completed application to address listed on registration form, along with check or scholarship application.

Grouping requests for all sites must be made prior to session start date. Please note that we cannot guarantee all grouping requests. Parent/guardian must attend
a short parent orientation meeting on the first scheduled session day.

Community Sites vs. Main Site:

Safety Town is offered at four different locations this summer. It originally started
at La Colina Jr. High years ago, but it became apparent that the program needed to be expanded as community needs grew. Foothill School is our Main Safety Town School site. It offers 5 choices of weekly sessions.

Grant funding enabled the Soroptimist organization to offer this important safety education program to these 'Community Sites' to better serve the growing need to expand to other local areas. To meet grant guidelines, we offer full tuition scholarships to those who qualify. This does not apply to the Foothill School location.

The curriculum and costs, (if not on full scholarship), are exactly the same at all school sites. The community visitors are from the same organizations, (fire, police, Red Cross, etc.)  The daily schedules and activities are identical. Our parents are surveyed at the end of each session, and they are extremely positive at all school sites.

The differences lie in the location of the school site, the lay out of the school, the teachers, and the session dates. Some teachers work at multiple school sites. All staff members are qualified, experienced educators. Some parents choose a session based on location, their summer schedule dates, where their child's friends are attending, or a combination of these factors to best meet the needs of their family.

The other difference is the registration process. For Foothill School, the
registration is in person only on April 16, 2011, 8:00-9:30, at the Goleta District Office, 401 N. Fairview Ave., Goleta. Registration for the Community Sites is by mail to the Community Site Directors. Applications for these sites are available at those school offices, or by email, Annegsb@cox.net.
