Superintendent's Message

Dear CJUHSD Parents and Guardians,

 

As we approach the end of the 2024–2025 school year, I find myself reflecting with great pride on all that our students and school communities have accomplished. This has been a year of growth, learning, and meaningful connection—and through it all, our students have continued to amaze me with their heart, their hard work, and their resilience.

 

Whether it was cheering in the stands at a Friday night football game, walking the halls during a classroom visit, or celebrating milestones in the arts and academics, I’ve been fortunate to witness firsthand the incredible spirit and determination that defines our CJUHSD students. They continue to rise to every challenge, and I am deeply inspired by the strength of character they show each and every day.

 

With state testing, AP exams, and finals underway, I know how much effort our students are putting in to finish strong. I want them to know that their dedication does not go unnoticed – we see you, we’re proud of you, and we are rooting for you all the way.

 

To the remarkable Class of 2025: Graduation is nearly here, and with it comes a well-earned celebration of all you’ve achieved. (A special letter just for you will be posted on the website as we get closer to your big day.) Please check our website under the Resources tab for your school’s graduation dates and times. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting many of you over the years, and I can say with confidence – our future is bright in your hands. Your journey is just beginning, and I can't wait to see where it takes you.

 

This summer, we’ll continue supporting our students through our summer school program, which will run from May 28 – June 26, 2025. Whether students are looking to catch up, get ahead, or strengthen their skills, they can connect with their school counselors to register and take full advantage of this opportunity.

 

As we honor the achievements of our graduates and bring this school year to a close, we also begin to prepare for the year ahead with hope and excitement. Thank you, parents and guardians, for your continued support and partnership. Together, we are shaping a community where students feel seen, supported, and empowered to thrive.

 

Wishing you all an enjoyable, safe, and restful summer.

 

Sincerely,

 

Mathew Holton, Ed.D.
Superintendent
