History

C.W. Dillard is the only Elk Grove school south of the Cosumnes River, and it has its origins in three country schools. The first was the Davis School, formed in 1865, and named for relatives of Jefferson Davis. The Lee School was built in 1872 and the original Dillard School in 1915. The present school was built in 1956 and named for C.W. Dillard who donated the land for the school. Davis school joined with Dillard in 1915, and when the Elk Grove district unified in 1959, the Lee School joined with Dillard.

Student and Parent Handbook


Absences

When your child is absent from school it is necessary to clear her/his absence by calling the school office the day of the absence with your child’s name, teacher and reason for the absence.  You may also email cwdattendance@egusd.net. If you are unable to call or email, you may send your child to the office the day s/he returns to school with a note signed by the parent/guardian, which states the reason and date(s) of the absence.  It is not the responsibility of your child’s teacher to notify the school office with information regarding your child’s absence.
 
*If your child is absent or tardy for school due to a doctor or dentist appointment, please remember to bring the doctor/dentist verification (note) to the office to excuse your child’s absence/tardy.
