Thank you so much to our SBCUSD Demonstration Team for an incredible first TK-12 meeting of the 2020-21 school year! So much fun, such great information, wonderful guests...I hope it was as much fun for everyone else as it was for me. I am so honored and blessed that I get to lead this team of exceptional teachers in the greatest school district in California.

SBCUSD Demo Teachers never stop working for their kids! This is Keith Brockie, Art Teacher at Arroyo Valley HS, packing boxes for his art students. Distance Learning is hard on everyone, especially on our VAPA teachers. Thank you for loving on your kids, Keith, and making sure they have what they need to be successful in your class from home.
