|
Anaheim Union High School District unveiled at Sycamore Junior High School on Thursday, Sept. 1, the first of 13 community resource centers planned for campuses around the district to provide a variety of support services to students and their families.
Sycamore’s new Community Schools Resource Center is a product of a seven-year, $4 billion state initiative to promote more holistic educational practices – particularly in lower-income, under-served schools. California’s State Board of Education approved the initiative in 2021 and launched it in May.

The Marketplace will keep families stocked with food in SVUSD |

Several years ago, the staff at Silverado High School in Mission Viejo began delivering food and gift baskets to the school’s families in need of some assistance during the holidays. In the process, officials at the alternative high school, which is part of the Saddleback Valley Unified School District, saw an ongoing need to supply food and other items to underserved families throughout the year, not just during the holiday season, Principal David Gordon said. |
