Castlemont Elementary School

Castlemont Recognized for Being a Caring Community

The California PBIS Commission has recognized Castlemont with their 2020 Community Cares award.

On August 10th, we received word from the California PBIS Coalition that Castlemont is being recognized for " its outstanding contribution of support and care during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic and resulting disruptions to school. Your heroic efforts to provide support of all kinds to California’s students, families, and communities did not go unnoticed."

Much effort and coordination went into outreach and support of families.  The San Jose and Sunnyvale Lions Clubs, Bethel Chuch, Home Church of Campbell, and our own staff all donated generously toward the needs of the Castlemont community. A big shout-out to our Community Liaison, Irama Mendoza, and our teacher, Jennifer Bates, for their personal work in making these connections.
