Hearing from our educational partners – including staff, students, families, and community – is an important part of #TheCeresWay. Our first Certificated Educational Partners meeting of the year was a time to exchange information and perspectives, keeping students’ interests at the heart of every conversation. Success starts with listening! 💙 #TeamCUSD #EveryVoiceCounts
