Los Angeles County fire strike teams and water dropping aircraft worked to contain the Woolsey Fire flames on or around Pepperdine University on Friday and over the weekend.
The school's authorities lifted the shelter-in-place order that had been in effect and canceled all school events for Saturday, and school officials were expected to update the status of Monday's classes and events later in the afternoon.
The Woolsey Fire flared up south of Simi Valley on Thursday afternoon and has rapidly spread since. It has since burned over 83,000 acres and is 10 percent contained. Two people have been found dead in the fire zone, while the death toll of the devastating Camp Fire in Northern California has risen to 23.
