Fall is in the air and it’s time to lace up those hiking boots again. It’s also Library Card Sign-up Month and, with a library card, you can get into over 200 California State Parks for free! Go to any @SCCLD library to get one, and your adventures await.

PAUSD received a special visit from a delegation of dignitaries from the Korean Department of Ed. The connection between PAUSD & these delegates began in the Spring 2020 when PAUSD collaborated w/SFSU's Psychology Dept to create a Social-Emotional-Learning Online Summer program.

One of the best events of the year - Special Olympics today at Greene Middle School. #PAUSDPromise

[EdSource @EdSource]

OPINION: Without big spending or complicated new programs, @PaloAltoUnified has seen a dramatic improvement in reading scores for its highest need students. It's a model any district can adopt. #caedu #edchat #reading #literacy @DonAustin_SUP

Behind every 'I'm fine' might be a story waiting to be heard. I'll share this one so someone else may feel less alone when they hit the #MentalHealth wall. Nobody jumps in the pool to rescue the lifeguard. They should... #PowerOfOne #PAUSDpromise https://t.co/86Ooc3Yxug

[Don Austin @Don_SimpleWins]

No finish line for #equity or #earlyliteracy @PaloAltoUnified There will be a day when our chart will read "STUDENTS" because the other descriptors will no longer be a predictor of outcomes. Right direction... not done!

[Derek Moore @derekm8201]

📈 As the chart shows, the start of the school year has brought a surge in tech requests. A big shoutout to our dedicated tech team working tirelessly and THANK YOU to our school community for your patience and understanding! 🙏🏼 #BackToSchool #PatiencePaysOff

Nothing beats the first day of school. TY @PaloAltoUnified parents for trusting us with the most important people in the world!

[County of Santa Clara @SCCgov]

Where did the summer go? Many schools are starting up this week! Motorists should afford extra time for the commute and slow down in neighborhoods as the small, backpacked ones will be taking to the streets on their way to learn important stuff.

[Don Austin @Don_SimpleWins]

I wish everyone could see and appreciate how many people are working hard to make the start of school special in schools across the nation, including @PaloAltoUnified. Cleaning sites, preparing messages, professional development, setting up classrooms, scheduling... caring.
