At its May 15th meeting, the Campbell Union School District (CUSD) Governing Board joined with employee organizations CETA and CSEA to unanimously adopt a resolution reaffirming our commitment to providing a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment for every student—regardless of immigration status.
“We want to ensure all of our students are welcomed and feel a sense of belonging, and we want to protect our students’ privacy and rights,” said Superintendent Shelly Viramontez.
The joint resolution reflects the united efforts of our Board, teachers, classified staff, and administrators to ensure that all children feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed in school and life. View the full resolution.
Started in 1978 by two Adaptive PE teachers, the Special Games has expanded to welcome thousands of students from across the Bay Area. The students participate in obstacle courses, frisbee throws, bean bag tosses, 100-yard dashes, and more at West Valley Community College. 
Sigala noted that federal funding enables schools to provide reading specialists, instructional aides, and small-group instruction that free the classroom teacher to provide more individualized attention and enrich lessons to meet diverse learning needs. “Teachers are the core of instruction, but these additional staff make a huge difference for our students,” she said.
Meals now come in cardboard trays with compostable utensils, and condiments are served from bulk dispensers instead of single-use packets. Castlemont students Greta and Ashley (pictured above) say they prefer the new dispensers. 
To reduce food waste, students also can place uneaten fruit and unopened milk in sharing bins for others to enjoy. Recycling bins are placed next to trash cans to support sorting.
