Today's #SchoolSiteHighlight takes us to Cedar Middle School in Mrs. Fristrom's 8th grade math class where they are using real world applications to solve fraction word problems.

It's techniques like these that have helped CMS continue their growth in State testing and student success. Great job Spartans!
We proudly bring you another episode of #HUSDBehindTheScenes where we highlight programs that work tirelessly to make sure your students get everything they need to learn. Today we highlight one of the many projects that our Maintenance, Facilities, and Operations Department have completed successfully. Sultana's athletics field was 30 years old and it was time for a refresh. The M,F,&O Department completely tore down the field, regraded it, and put down new sod to give our Sultana athletes a nice new surface to compete on. We went out to Sultana after the improvements to interview their admin as well as some of their student athletes to get their thoughts on the great work our F,M,&O Department did.

Students from SHS and OHHS Criminal Justice pathways attended Law & Public Safety Day, hosted by San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools and the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. Students attended opening remarks, a panel interview, two breakout sessions and closing remarks. The breakout sessions included some hands-on activities, such as dusting for fingerprints, matching fingerprints, identifying and tagging evidence at a fictitious crime scene, and some lessons on utilizing computers for research. During lunch our students learned more about the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department and their involvement in patrolling waterways and were able to see one of the patrol boats. What a great day of hands on learning for our students looking to pursue careers in criminal justice.
