Happy 1st day of Spring! 🌸🌸🌸
Dr. Wickham dropped in on today’s professional learning bearing cookies! Over the next few weeks, she will have visited every site and department across the district to personally thank employees for their dedication to meeting students’ needs every day. There’s no team like #TeamCUSD! 🍪👊🥰 #TheCeresWay
Students at Sinclear Elementary were asked to write about what they would do if they found a pot of gold. We hope they find it! Wishing all our students, staff, and families the luck o’ the Irish this #StPatricksDay! 🥰🍀 #CeresLearns
A reminder that Friday, March 17 is a non-student day as our staff engage in professional learning. We hope students enjoy the long weekend and we look forward to seeing them back at school on Monday, March 20!
Continuing our #WomensHistoryMonth series honoring women who were and are notable contributors to education in the Ceres community, meet Patricia Kay Beaver. The district’s K-8 Leadership Magnet school is named in honor of this longtime educator whose love for Ceres, and commitment to making a difference for its students, were reflected in her community service and work as a Ceres High School teacher and club advisor. Sadly, Mrs. Beaver passed away on Mother’s Day 2001 after battling cancer. How fitting that her daughter, Libby Callahan, serves as Principal of the school named in her honor.
This morning, three outstanding CUSD students were honored by the Stanislaus County Office of Education and ACSA Stanislaus Charter for overcoming serious challenges along their path to academic success. Princess Jaime, Princess Janae, and Timothy, you inspire us! 🥰🤩👏

Beginning on this #InternationalWomensDay and throughout March, which is #WomensHistoryMonth, we’ll feature women who were and are notable contributors to education in the Ceres community.
Meet Virginia “Betty” Parks, for whom Virginia Parks Elementary School is named! Active in the Ceres community for most of her life and passionate about education, Mrs. Parks served on the former Ceres High School Board of Trustees and, when the district unified in 1965, on the CUSD Board of Trustees. Mrs. Parks was a member of service organizations including Persephone Guild, served as director of the Ceres Chamber of Commerce, was instrumental to the founding of the Ceres Partnership for Healthy Children, and was named Ceres Citizen of the Year in 1977, among many other contributions and recognitions. 💙💛 #WomenRock #CeresLearns
