Superintendent Schieferle's Welcome Back Message 2022-23 School Year [English/Spanish]

August 2, 2022

Dear FUSD Community,

I am excited to welcome you back to the 2022-2023 school year. I hope your family had the opportunity this summer to spend quality time with loved ones and that you and your children are ready for the upcoming school year. It is going to be a great year!

The beginning of each school year is always time for reflection, preparation, and new beginnings. We will continue to focus on strengthening communication, building relationships, and working together to ensure that we have safe, welcoming, and student-focused schools.

Staff have been working all summer long to prepare for the upcoming school year and will continue to expand academic, enrichment, and social-emotional opportunities for our students, such as:

• School counselors at every school site

• Wellness Centers at Fillmore High School and Fillmore Middle School, each staffed with a full-time licensed social worker and a shared counselor

• Community Learning Hubs in Fillmore, Rancho Sespe, and Piru, staffed with a teacher, instructional assistant, and counselor

• Full-time bilingual community liaisons at all school sites

• Free online academic tutoring 24 hours a day/7 days a week

• Reading Intervention teachers at all elementary schools and Fillmore Middle School

• Additional assistant principals at Fillmore High School and Fillmore Middle School

• New STEM Electives at Fillmore Middle School

• Fieldtrips to universities and colleges to promote a college-bound culture

• After-school Bridges program until 6:00 p.m., Monday – Friday

We will also continue to prioritize school safety at all school sites. Each year, all staff receives training on safety procedures and response expectations for a variety of emergencies. Each school conducts regular emergency drills and we will continue to have school resource officers at Fillmore High School and Fillmore Middle School to build relationships and respond in the event of a school emergency. COVID safety measures for the upcoming school year can be found on the FUSD website.

Please also consider supporting our School Site Councils, English Learner Advisory Committees, Parent Booster Clubs, and other schools/classroom volunteer opportunities. Connecting with these organizations along with your student’s teachers, principals, counselors, and support personnel is critical to your child’s success in school. I am looking forward to seeing our students back on our campuses on Wednesday, August 17th. I am confident that working together, we can make this school year a safe and positive experience for our students.

Proud to be a part of FUSD.

Chrissy Schieferle, Superintendent

Estimada Comunidad del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Fillmore (FUSD),

Yo estoy muy emocionada de darles la bienvenida al año escolar 2022-23.

Espero que su familia haya tenido la oportunidad de pasar tiempo de calidad con sus seres queridos este verano y que ustedes y sus hijos estén listos para el año escolar que está por comenzar. ¡Este va a ser un año maravilloso!

El comienzo de cada año escolar siempre es un momento para reflexionar, prepararse, y comenzar de nuevo. Vamos a continuar de enfocarnos en mejorar la comunicación, establecer relaciones, y trabajar juntos para asegurar que tengamos escuelas seguras, acogedoras y enfocadas en los estudiantes.

El personal escolar ha estado trabajando durante todo este verano para prepararse para este año escolar y continuarán enfocándose en crear más oportunidades académicas, de enriquecimiento, y socio-emocionales para nuestros estudiantes, tales como:

.

• Consejeros escolares en cada escuela

• Centros de Bienestar en la Escuela Secundaria de Fillmore y la Escuela Intermedia de Fillmore, cada centro tiene personal con un trabajador(a) social licenciado(a) de tiempo completo y un consejero(a) compartido

• Los Centros de Aprendizaje en la Comunidad en Fillmore, Rancho Sespe, y Piru, que tienen un maestro(a), ayudante de instrucción, y consejero(a)

• Representantes Bilingües de la Comunidad en todas las escuelas de tiempo completo

• Tutoría académica gratuita en línea 24 horas al día/7 días a la semana

• Maestros de Intervención de Lectura en todas las escuelas primarias y en la Escuela Intermedia de Fillmore

También continuaremos dándole prioridad a la seguridad escolar en todas las escuelas. Cada año, el personal escolar recibe entrenamiento sobre procedimientos de seguridad y las expectativas de cómo responder en una variedad de emergencias. Cada escuela regularmente lleva a cabo ensayos de emergencias y continuaremos teniendo policías escolares en la Escuela Secundaria de Fillmore y la Escuela Intermedia de Fillmore para establecer relaciones y responder en caso de una emergencia escolar. Las medidas de seguridad de COVID para este año escolar próximo se pueden encontrar en el sitio web de FUSD.

Por favor considere participando en nuestros Concilios Consejeros en las Escuelas, los Comités Consejeros para Aprendices de Inglés, los Clubes de Apoyo de Padres, y otras oportunidades para servir como voluntarios. El conectar con estas organizaciones junto con los maestros de sus estudiantes, directores, consejeros, y personal de apoyo es esencial para el éxito de su hijo(a) en la escuela. Espero ver a nuestros estudiantes en los terrenos escolares el miércoles, 17 de agosto. Estoy segura que podemos hacer de este año escolar de una experiencia segura y positiva para nuestros estudiantes.
