A Message from our Superintendent
Dear families and community members,
The end of the 19-20 school year was challenging for students, families, and school staff. I am proud of the efforts put forth by the staff in our district, from our teachers and students to our technology and food service teams. It took a lot of preparation, flexibility and thinking outside of the box.
It is because of the lessons we learned at the end of the year that will make us stronger and better equipped as we face similar challenges in the new year.
We would like to share with you, the plan to reopen while providing a safe and healthy work environment for students and staff, but most importantly provides learning structures for students that allow them to advance academically.
We ask that parents review all of the information provided on our Reopening Plan page. We have outlined all of the options available to students, as well as address as many questions and concerns as possible. Once you have reviewed the options we ask that you make your selection by July 10th.
We thank you for your trust in us. We look forward to working through this next phase of transition together.
Sincerely,
David Y. Verdugo
SCVUSD No. 35 Superintendent
