Dear Chaffey District Students, Parents, and Guardians,
 
As we approach the close of the first semester of the 2025–2026 school year, students throughout the Chaffey District are preparing for final exams, which will take place on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, December 17–19. These will be minimum days for all students. Please visit your school’s website for specific schedule details.
 
Students, I encourage you to stay focused and finish the semester strong before enjoying a well-earned winter break. As you study, please remember to take advantage of the many supports available to you – including tutoring opportunities and individualized help from your teachers – to ensure you feel confident and prepared for finals.
 
Parents and guardians, thank you for the ongoing partnership and encouragement you provide for your student. If you have questions or encounter any challenges, please don’t hesitate to contact your school or the District Office at (909) 988-8511 ext. 2501. We are here to help in whatever way we can as we work together to ensure your student has what they need to be successful. You may also visit the “Resources” tab on our website for information about technology assistance, mental health services, and other available supports.
 
I am grateful for the resilience and determination our students continue to demonstrate and for the unwavering support our families provide. Your efforts make a meaningful difference, and we remain committed to doing everything we can to help students thrive.
 
As always, please reach out to teachers, counselors, site administrators, or my office if you need any assistance.
 
Warmest wishes for a joyful and restful holiday season.
 
Mathew Holton, Ed.D.
Superintendent
All CJUHSD students will graduate ready for college and careers.
