It's California Native American Day! Today we honor the history, culture, and contributions of the Indigenous people of our state, including the Patwin, who have stewarded the land where WUSD stands. Together, let’s continue to educate and honor their legacy.

It's true, schools can't do it all alone. But, when we work alongside incredible partners like the Masons of California and Raising a Reader, we can inspire change together! ?? Thank you for your meaningful contributions to supporting academic achievement in WUSD! ?? “With approximately 10% of our student population from countries outside the United States attending school in our district, it is clear that West Sacramento is seeing a rise of ‘newcomers’,” said Dr. Cheryl P. Hildreth, Superintendent of Washington Unified School District. “We are grateful to Raising a Reader and the Masons of California for partnering with us to improve the educational outcomes for these students.”
