Every Day, Every Student Belongs.

September is Attendance Awareness Month, and we’re celebrating the important connection between showing up and belonging. When students attend school regularly, they have more opportunities to learn, build relationships, participate in their school community, and feel connected.

At CJUSD, we believe every student matters, every day. Their presence makes a difference in our classrooms and community.

Center Spotlight: Raquel Alvarez ✨🚌

Please join us in welcoming Raquel Alvarez, our new Transportation Supervisor! Raquel brings 21 years of experience in the transportation industry to the district. She began her career as a bus driver and spent 10 years driving special education routes, where she built meaningful relationships with students and families. Many of those students became like family, making those years especially memorable.

Throughout her career, Raquel also gained experience in PM dispatching before becoming a state certified instructor. She quickly discovered a passion for training and enjoys sharing her knowledge, supporting others, and helping colleagues grow in their careers.

Outside of work, Raquel enjoys spending time with her children, grandchildren, and close friends. One of her favorite things to do is chase a beautiful sunset because there is nothing quite like ending the day with a beautiful view!

We are excited to welcome Raquel to the Center team and look forward to the connections she will build with our students, families, and staff!

When families read together, students build important literacy skills while developing confidence, curiosity, and a love of learning. Our Family Literacy Workshop Series is designed to give families simple, practical strategies they can use at home to support student success.

Leaders Learn Too!

Learning matters for our students and everyone who supports them. Today, site and district administrators came together for their bi monthly meeting to do some learning of their own. The meeting opened with each leader sharing their 2026 to 2027 goals for their school or department, along with their personal leadership goals. The team also received district updates, discussed the district’s 3-year instructional initiatives, and reviewed the mental health services available to our school community.

Our elementary administrators then stuck around with their site literacy support staff to continue learning about early literacy instruction and how we can keep working to get ALL our students reading at grade level.

Great learning today for our Leaders! 📚
