If you need to walk your student onto campus, please park in a designated parking space before exiting your vehicle.
We have buses, vans, and students being dropped off throughout the day, and these lanes must remain clear at all times. For everyone’s safety and to keep traffic flowing smoothly, please do not get out of your vehicle or park in any way in the drop-off lanes. Thank you for your cooperation and for helping keep our campus safe.

In celebration of Read Across America Day and in honor of the beloved children’s author Dr. Seuss, we are proud to announce the dedication of our New Free Library. We were proud to dedicate it to three extraordinary educators who have devoted their careers to serving the students of Capay.
Lisa Taylor – 21 years of dedicated service
Cathy Cummings – 20 years of dedicated service
Sue Davis – 19 years of dedicated service
Collectively, these remarkable women have given 60 years of commitment, compassion, and inspiration to the children of Capay. Their unwavering dedication to education has shaped generations of learners and fostered a lifelong love of reading and discovery.
It is especially meaningful that this library be dedicated on Read Across America Day—a day that celebrates literacy, imagination, and the joy of books—values that Lisa, Cathy, and Sue have championed throughout their careers.
May this New Free Library stand as a lasting tribute to their service and as a continued source of knowledge, opportunity, and inspiration for all who use it.
With sincere gratitude and appreciation, we thank Lisa Taylor, Cathy Cummings, and Sue Davis for their extraordinary years of service to the students of Capay.
So excited for some of our February birthdays to redeem their book tokens for a book from the Book Vending Machine. It was generously donated from the Capay PTO! The students are so excited!! Capay has the best PTO.
