Ceres Unified School District is proud to continue our district-wide FACTOR program to help families support their children’s educational journey. These weekly workshops offer practical information on the social, emotional, and physical development of children in grades TK-12, along with useful information and resources for navigating the educational system, becoming college and career ready, and developing 21st century skills. Classes are offered in English and Spanish and include weekly raffles! For additional information, please contact Ceres Adult School at (209) 556-1557.
While CUSD students are achieving at high levels, school facilities are aging and in need of repair. In total, CUSD’s Facilities Master Plan identifies over $155 million of needed repairs and improvements across every school site. To learn more about steps CUSD is taking to address needed upgrades, please visit www.ceres.k12.ca.us/page/facilities-upgrades.
September is Suicide Prevention Month. The 988 Lifeline is available to support anyone through any emotional need — not just thoughts of suicide. By calling, texting, or chatting, anyone can connect with a trained crisis counselor who is ready to provide support at any time. CUSD also has mental health resources available to support students at all of our schools.
Downloadable PDFs of the parent and educator tips are available at https://5il.co/2458h.

This just in … there has been an early sighting of none other than Santa Claus at Westport Elementary School, where Preschool students were excited to hear that they are, in fact, all on the “Nice” list. There was no sign of Santa’s sleigh, but Assistant Director of Transportation Andrew Lopshire was spotted in the area, so we’re confident the jolly old elf will get safely to his next stop. 🎅🎄🎁🚍 See more photos on our social media pages. #CeresSleighs
Today, Ceres Police Department received a call regarding a possible intruder outside Central Valley High School. The school was placed on lockdown, law enforcement immediately responded and the individual was detained. Students and staff are safe. An investigation has revealed that there was no threat to the school. Again, students and staff are safe and there is no threat to the school.
Another outstanding turnout at our #TownHall meeting on #Cyberbullying and Social Media Use. Thank you to everyone who had a part in discussing this important topic – CUSD families, staff, and community partners. #CeresLearns
