More than 200 CVUSD families attended the 10th Annual Conference for Spanish Speaking Families on Saturday, May 4th. Together, attendees participated in a wonderful day of learning, engagement and activities hosted by the CVUSD's Parent Outreach Program with the phenomenal leadership of Ana Alvarez, dedicated CVUSD/school site staff, and irreplaceable community partners. The event featured informative presentations centered on ideas for supporting children in their academics and education, and how to overcome challenges, together. There were also folkloric dancers, community resource agencies, a concert/workshop and keynote speakers. Children of families attending the Conference had the opportunity to participate in art, music, Lego engineering, Robotics, Agricultural Science class and planting.

Parent engagement is a key component of successful student academic outcomes, and this event, and its volume of attendees is a testament to how the school district and parent collaboration supports our students. Congratulations on a successful, engaging event!
