Celebrating Latinx Heritage Month |

One of my most joyful moments in recent memory is welcoming students back on the first day of school this year. The laughter and excitement of our young scholars and their families echoed through the streets of San Francisco.
This is a moment to celebrate, and we also know that students are coming into this school year with a lot of unknowns. Every single child entering our schools is arriving ready to be welcomed. Every family is sending their child, trusting us to love them, to teach them and to prepare them for their future. What an immense and humbling honor we have in fulfilling their expectations. That’s why we are emphasizing building community.
Thank you for your ongoing partnership. Please continue to read our monthly family newsletter for information and inspiration.
