was very concerned about our special
education program based on a review of
records during the 2013-14 school year.
● The CDE returned last week to conduct
another review of our records.
● Based on that review, the CDE was very
pleased with the improvement.
● Thank you to our teachers, certificated and
classified support staff and our
administrators for your hard work.

Attendance Campaign ● Our district-wide attendance goal for the first four
weeks of school is 100% student attendance.
● We expect that students will attend school- every day,
on-time, and for the full day each and every day.
● Each week during the first four weeks of this school
year, the Superintendent and his Executive Team will
be going to each and every school to recognize
classrooms that have 100% perfect attendance.
