First Day of School

School begins today and there is obviously lots of excitement for lots of different reasons.  I know I always love the beginning of the new school year with new students, teachers, staff, and opportunities.  Or perhaps it is just a long-standing habitual reaction that I have for this season of the year. 
In any case, we are off and running for a new school year that promises to be a good and interesting one.  There are obviously many new programs along with a multitude of adjustments in programs across the District.  As just a small example we have:
  • The new program at Bryant Elementary that focuses on arts and innovation
  • The dual language immersion program expands both to additional grade levels as well as from Washington Elementary to an additional site at Castle View Elementary
  • Ramona HS is going to a full 1:1 deployment of mobile digital devices
  • Most of our middle schools are engaged in something similar to what is happening at Ramona HS
  • The Riverside STEM Academy at Central Middle School
Welcome back and have a great year!!
