SBCUSD Connect - August 30, 2024

​ ​ SBCUSD Connect August 30, 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ In the Spotlight ​ San Bernardino City Unified Celebrates Two San Bernardino County Teachers of the Year The San Bernardino City Unified School District (SBCUSD) has not one, but two outstanding educators who have been named 2025 San Bernardino County Teachers of the Year. Lorraine Bowen, a dedicated teacher at Brown Elementary School, and Carla Hernandez, a passionate math teacher at Golden Valley Middle School, have both earned this prestigious recognition from the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools.  Bowen and Hernandez are shining examples of the talent and commitment nurtured within our District. Both are homegrown educators, having once walked the halls of our schools as students. Their deep connection to our community and unwavering dedication to their students make them exemplary representatives of the caliber of education SBCUSD provides, said Superintendent Mauricio Arellano.  “Like me, these two stellar educators are from right here in San Bernardino,” Arellano said. “They know firsthand what it takes to succeed and their commitment to our city runs so deep that they have dedicated their entire careers to our students.” As County Teachers of the Year, Bowen and Hernandez will now advance to compete for the title of California Teacher of the Year. Their achievements reflect the collective efforts of SBCUSD  to provide an excellent education that empowers students to succeed.  The Board of Education held a special reception on August 20 in honor of Bowen and Hernandez. “I dedicate this award to all the bright, ambitious students who have dreams, aspirations, and hopes for a brighter future,” Bowen said as part of her remarks at the reception. “I, too, was once one of those students…a young child with an unwavering drive to succeed.” During her remarks, Hernandez said, “San Bernardino has seen me through my best times, my worst times. San Bernardino City Unified School District…I was born and raised here. I went to elementary, middle school and high school ​ ​ ​ ​   ​ ​ ​ ​ Future in Focus ​ Quick tips, brief updates, and reminders about what’s coming up to help families, employees, and our community make the most of our schools. ​ ​ ​ ​   ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Board of Education Meeting  September 3, 2024 5:30 p.m. Dr. Margaret Hill Community Room 777 North F Street San Bernardino Watch here ​ ​ ​ ​ Pure Land Foundation Mobile Food Pantry September 14, 2024 9 a.m. to Noon Pacific High School 1020 Pacific Street San Bernardino ​ ​ ​ ​ ​   ​ ​ ​ ​ Weekly Bulletin Each Monday morning, SBCUSD publishes the Weekly Bulletin through ParentSquare, where we share a collection of events to keep you connected to SBCUSD and the community. Check out the Weekly Bulletin Mondays at 11 a.m. ​ ​ ​ ​   ​ ​ ​ ​ Highlights of the Month ​ Highlights of key news from the week that will help you stay in the know. ​ ​ ​ ​   ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ SBCUSD Schools Shine with Fresh Coats of Pride ​ As part of our ongoing commitment to creating vibrant, welcoming environments for our students, several San Bernardino City Unified School District campuses underwent significant transformations over the summer with fresh coats of paint. These updates not only reflect the pride we have in our community but also enhance the curb appeal of our schools, making them more inviting for students, families and staff. These seemingly small improvements are a crucial part of our strategic plan to continuously uplift our campuses and, in turn, our community. When our schools look their best, our students feel a greater sense of pride and belonging, which can have a positive impact on their overall educational experience.  “Our goal is to ensure that every school in SBCUSD is a place where students feel proud and inspired to learn,” said Superintendent Mauricio Arellano. “These updates, while simple, represent our ongoing commitment to creating an environment that reflects the strength and pride of our community. When students see that their schools are well-maintained and cared for, it reinforces their sense of belonging and encourages them to take pride in their education.” The new colors were carefully chosen to reflect both the unique spirit of each school that was repainted and the shared pride of the San Bernardino community. As students returned to these refreshed campuses for the new school year, we hope they feel inspired by the clean, bright surroundings that now match the vibrant energy they bring to their classrooms each day. Among the campuses that underwent one of the most stark transformations is San Bernardino High School, home of the Cardinals.  San Bernardino High School Principal Anna Sosa said returning to a bright campus was invigorating for students and staff.  “The fresh coat of red and white paint has truly revitalized our campus. It’s amazing to see how such a small change can make such a big difference in how our students feel about their school, ​ ​ ​ ​   ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Toyota Dealership’s Generous Donation of Backpacks Delights Parkside Elementary Students ​ Nearly 500 Parkside Elementary School students received a special surprise on August 27, just as the new school year is getting underway. Thanks to a generous donation from Toyota of San Bernardino, every Parkside student received a brand-new backpack filled with essential school supplies. This thoughtful gift ensures that students are well-prepared and excited to kick off the academic year. The surprise donation was met with smiles and excitement throughout the school, but perhaps no one was more appreciative than sixth-grader Henry Sanchez, 12. Henry, a standout student and natural leader in his class, expressed his gratitude for the new backpack, which he says will help him stay organized and focused during the school year. “I lose my pencils all the time and having everything I need to succeed in one place really makes a difference,” Henry said as he checked out his new school supplies. “It feels great to know that our community cares about us and wants us to do well in school.” Toyota of San Bernardino has a long history of supporting local education initiatives, and this donation is just the latest example of their commitment to the San Bernardino community.  “By providing students with the tools they need to thrive, we are helping to set the stage for a successful school year for every child at Parkside Elementary,” said the San Bernardino dealership’s General Manager, Eli Rivera. “I see myself in the faces of these students, and that’s why I want them to succeed.”  Parkside Principal Dr. Khaleelah Lewis-Wilkins expressed her heartfelt thanks to Toyota of San Bernardino, noting the positive impact this contribution will have on her students. “Our students are so excited to receive these backpacks and supplies,” she said. “This generous donation will make a tremendous difference in their lives, giving them the confidence and resources they need to excel in their studies.” ​ ​ ​ ​   ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ SBCUSD Celebrates Six New Community Schools with Ribbon-Cutting Ceremonies ​ SBCUSD kicked off the new school year by announcing a significant milestone for the San Bernardino City Unified School District: the official opening of six new community schools, which held ribbon-cutting ceremonies in August, representing a transformative step forward in our commitment to providing holistic support for our students and their families. The ribbon-cutting ceremonies at Anton, Emmerton, Norton, and Urbita Elementary Schools, and Pacific High and Sierra High Schools were a joyous occasion, bringing together students, families, educators, and community leaders to celebrate this new chapter for SBCUSD. Each event was a testament to the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in making these community schools a reality. Director of Family Engagement Dr. Beatriz Gonzalez, who oversees the community schools effort for SBCUSD, expressed her pride in this achievement, saying, “Our new community schools represent the best of what public education can be,” Gonzalez said. “By addressing the whole child and engaging families and the broader community, we are building a stronger, more supportive environment for our students to thrive.” Across SBCUSD, there is much excitement about the positive impact these community schools will have on our District and we look forward to seeing the many ways they will enhance the lives of our students and families. As we embark on this new journey, we invite all families to take full advantage of the resources and services available at our community schools. Together, we can ensure that students have the support they need to achieve their full potential. For more information about our community schools and the services they offer, please visit our District website or contact your local community School. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ What Are Community Schools? Community schools are unique in that they go beyond the traditional role of public schools. They serve as hubs of learning and support for the entire community, offering a wide range of services and resources designed to meet the academic, social, emotional and physical needs of students and their families. This integrated approach sets community schools apart and ensures that every child has access to the tools they need to succeed, both inside and outside the classroom. At our new community schools, students can benefit from additional services such as: Extended Learning Opportunities: Tutoring, after-school programs and summer enrichment activities that provide extra academic support and engage students in meaningful ways.    Health and Wellness Services: Access to on-site medical, dental and mental health care, ensuring that students are healthy and ready to learn.    Family Engagement and Support: Programs that strengthen family involvement in education, as well as resources such as job training, parenting classes and access to social services. ​ ​
