Finding Moments of Joy and Connection this Holiday Season
​
As the holiday season approaches and with just over two weeks of school before the winter break, I would like to take a moment to reflect on and express gratitude for our partnership with the IUSD community. On behalf of the IUSD Board of Education and Leadership Team, thank you to our dedicated teachers and staff, talented students, engaged parents and guardians, and passionate community partners for your tireless efforts and collaboration in support of our students and schools. Together, we are the “US” at the center of IUSD, working in partnership to provide students with the highest quality educational experience we can envision.

As one of the highest-performing school districts in the state and nation, we prioritize a balance between academic achievement, innovative learning, and the well-being of every student. Equally important as the time spent in our classrooms are the moments spent together with family and friends —moments that build connection, resilience, and happiness. More...
