Second week back and we are moving full steam ahead. Great stuff this week.

TC Making a Difference

If you remember we collected items for donation at the HS to support one of our TUSD employees annual trip to an orphanage in Mexico. The trip was a success thanks to the support and help from TC. The orphans were happy with all their gifts and enjoyed the sweets we provided. Here's a link to a vlog they made.

Measure N Information

TUSD schools rank among the best in the State. We focus every day on helping students thrive. However, our elementary and middle schools are aging with many over 50 years old. Although well maintained, these schools require significant upgrades and repairs after decades of constant use. Over the past two years , TUSD built a Facilities Master Plan with direct input from over 600 school stakeholders while engaging and informing thousands of residents. Measure N is a result of those conversations. Please visit this webpage for additional information.
