PUSD is partnering with the local organizations featured in this newsletter that is kept updated by my office as I work on developing partnerships with local nonprofits, community organizations and businesses. We would appreciate it if you could post and communicate it to students and parents on an ongoing basis to help fill the need for volunteers by various nonprofits and organizations located within PUSD. It helps build a sense of belonging for our students and community.
