Due to unhealthy air quality, the campus will be closed on August 24th, 2020. All virtual services and classes will continue as normal.

COVID-19 Response: Las Positas College has transitioned to Online Classes and Services. Details and Resources Here.

The Zone Student Portal is unavailable. However, you can still access Class-Web and Zonemail.

Congratulations Class of 2020! Although the in-person commencement ceremony is being postponed to a later date, you deserve to be honored and celebrated now!

Employee Email: Due to multiple email issues, the deadline for submitting grades has been extended to 11:00 pm Thursday, May 28, 2020. ITS understands the difficult timing of these issues for communicating with students and is working to restore the problem server as quickly as possible. These servers will be replaced over the Summer.
