This Wednesday, October 16th is Unity Day. Unity Day is the signature event of National Bullying Prevention Month. Unity Day’s goal is to bring together youth, parents, educators, and communities to emphasize the message that bullying is not acceptable. All students deserve to be safe in school, online, and in the community. I invite you all to wear orange on Wednesday to show your support for kindness, acceptance and inclusion.

Our year II Education Pathway Capstone students are now tutoring at our local elementary and middle schools. During first period our students visit Cypress Elementary or Las Palmas Middle School. This system allows our students to receive hands-on- teaching experience and allows them to figure out which grade level is the best fit for them. It is such a great experience for all involved! Our CVUSD children love having the high school students as role models on their campus and our CVUSD teachers love seeing their former students all grown up and now preparing for a future teaching profession.
