Superintendent's Message - October 2024

Dear SUSD Community,

As we move into October, I want to highlight several key areas that reflect our ongoing commitment to safety, security, and student well-being.

Safety and Security
First and foremost, school safety remains a top priority. We take every situation seriously, and we never assume that any threat is a joke. In case you missed it, we recently held a SUSD Safety and Security Town Hall at Chaparral High School. You can watch the recording here.
