Dear Staff, Students, Parents, and Members of the Planada Learning Community,
We want to share an important update regarding Cesar E. Chavez Middle School. Over the past month and a half, we have engaged our Learning Community in a thoughtful and inclusive process to gather input on this matter. We are grateful to everyone who took the time to participate. In total, we received nearly 500 survey responses and close to 200 written comments, reflecting a wide range of perspectives and a strong commitment to our schools.

After carefully reviewing this input, the Planada ESD Board of Trustees has taken unanimous formal action to begin the process of renaming Cesar E. Chavez Middle School. This decision marks the beginning of a broader process. In the coming week, we will outline next steps, including opportunities for continued community engagement and input as we move forward together. Per Board Policy 7310, our next steps include the following:

* Establish a 7-member Citizens Advisory Committee that includes 2 ad hoc Trustees
* Board of Trustees will establish renaming parameters
* Survey our Educational Partners on suggested names
* Board of Trustees will take formal action on the new name of the middle school.

We remain committed to transparency, respect, and collaboration throughout this process, and we thank you for your ongoing support and involvement in our District. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the District Office.
Sincerely,
José L. González
Superintendent

Today we had the privilege of coming together to celebrate Farmworker and Agriculture Appreciation Day, a meaningful opportunity to recognize the dedication, resilience, and essential contributions of farm workers and the agricultural community that sustains us all.

Our students made this celebration truly special. Through thoughtful group and individual presentations, they honored the stories, sacrifices, and impact of those who work tirelessly in agriculture. The performances added even more pride and energy to the day, from the DLI production to our folklórico dancers, band, and color guard showcasing their talent and cultural appreciation in truly memorable ways.

Today’s recognition also reminds us of the lasting impact of the Farm Labor Movement. Through collective action and advocacy, farm workers fought for safer working conditions, fair wages, access to clean drinking water, rest breaks, and protections from harmful pesticides. Their efforts led to important labor rights and continue to inspire ongoing work toward equity and dignity in the workplace.

On behalf of the PESD Board of Trustees and me, thank you to all the students who participated and shared their voices, as well as to the staff who supported and helped organize today’s events. Your efforts made this a powerful and uplifting experience for our entire Learning Community.

Let us continue to recognize and appreciate the vital role agriculture plays in our lives...not just today, but every day.

Have a great weekend!
