2025-06-23 PUSD Community Message

June 23, 2025

Dear PUSD Community,

In light of the recent events affecting many of our families, we want to begin by reaffirming what matters most to us: your safety, your well-being, and our collective strength as a community.

All PUSD summer programs remain open at this time. We want to reassure you that our campuses are secure, private spaces designed to protect and support our students. Student safety is our top priority, and always will be.

We understand that some families may need flexibility during this time. Please contact your child's summer program administrator or teacher if this is your situation.

We also recognize the emotional toll recent events may have taken on many of our students and families. If your student is feeling fear, stress, or anxiety, please know that they are not alone. Our counselors and support teams are here to help. We are also working with our Food Services team to explore alternative meal options to ensure every student continues to receive the nourishment they need.

For additional help, including legal and wellness resources, we encourage families to visit pusd.us/immigrationresources. You will find information there that is meant to support and uplift our families during uncertain times.

We are in this together. Thank you for your trust, your strength, and your unwavering partnership as we navigate these challenges, always with the care of our students and employees at the center.

With deep gratitude,

Elizabeth Blanco, Ed.D.
Superintendent
