Statement to the School Board

SMJUHSDFA members,

Last night at the School Board meeting, I was asked to prepare a statement as the representative of the SMJUHSDFA. Please find attached the statement that I read.

As many of you may already be aware, the California Department of Education’s recent document, “FAQs on Grading and Graduation Requirements,” directs our District to make decisions about the remainder of this school year:

After many meetings and discussions with teachers, department chairs, and administrators, the District office should give us their guidance and direction by the end of this week.

Until we hear otherwise, continue to reach out to your students with lessons and assignments while keeping track of completion and participation.

Only two more days until a well deserved Spring break.

Hope you and your families are doing well.
