We deliver innovative and inspiring direct instruction to alternative, juvenile court, special education and state preschool students. The office of the superintendent is committed to working with school districts, other agencies, families and the community at-large, providing leadership, advocacy and services — always with the focus on students. The county superintendent provides educational leadership and a menu of services to every school district in San Bernardino County.

Today, we gathered for our annual Patriot Day ceremony to honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and recognize the courage and service of those who responded in the days that followed.

Through a moment of silence and meaningful reflections, our community came together to remember the lasting impact of September 11 and the importance of honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

We were also honored by musical performances from talented students at Bloomington High School:

Mireya — "America the Beautiful"
Nevaeh and Mireya — "God Bless America"

Thank you to these student performers for helping make today’s ceremony a meaningful tribute through their voices and talents.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget. 🕊️🇺🇸

to last year's MOU signing with California State University, San Bernardino! 🎓

This partnership is creating a clearer pathway to college for high school graduates across six San Bernardino County school districts. Through the agreement, qualifying high school seniors receive guaranteed admission to CSUSB, removing the initial application process and making the path to higher education more accessible.

We’re proud to celebrate partnerships that open doors and expand opportunities for students across our county! 💙
