Superintendent's Message - September 2026
It is hard to believe we are already nearly a month into the 2026-27 school year. Across SUSD our students and staff are settling into their routines. I continue to be grateful for the enthusiasm and sense of possibility I see throughout our schools.
September will also be an important month for community conversation and engagement.
Investing in SUSD's Future
This week, we kick off a series of community informational meetings about SUSD's $375 million bond election, which will appear on the November 3 ballot.
