#HUSDSportCenter Congrats to Oak Hills High School Jordan Spencer, as he accepted a full-ride scholarship to Cal State Fullerton to continue his track career and his academic pursuits as a Titan! Jordan is in the middle of a historic CIF Track & Field postseason after a dominant regular season at Oak Hills! On the track, Jordan is among the elite in California. He was a member of the 2025 Division 1 CIF Championship 4x100 relay team and is a central figure as the Bulldogs push for another title in 2026. At the MRL Track & Field Finals, Jordan was named the 2026 MRL Boys Track & Field Athlete of the Year. At MRL Finals, he was a MRL Champion in the 4x100m relay, the 400m dash, the 200m dash, and the 4x400m relay! Yes, you read that right, Jordan is a quadruple MRL champion this year! His effort helped lead Oak Hills to its 4th consecutive league championship! It's a great day to be a Bulldog! On top of all this, Jordan has experienced the following senior year accomplishments: 100m – 10.66, 200m – 21.25, 400m – 47.29 (8th in California, school record), 4x100 – 41.00 (11th in California, school record), 4x200 – 1:25.28 (3rd in California, school record), 4x400 – 3:22.45 (school record). Jordan also set the following OHHS school records: 300m – 33.83, 600m – 1:23.37, 4x800 – 8:39.65 & SMR – 1:33.23. Coach Gilbert said, "Jordan shows up to practice every day with a positive attitude and a relentless drive to improve. He raises the standard for everyone around him. He has been an absolute pleasure to coach, and there is no doubt he will go on to do great things at CSUF!" The CSUF Titans Track & Field team competes in the NCAA Big West Division 1 Conference, where, in March 2026, the men's team captured its first-ever Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) Indoor title, while the women achieved a program-best bronze finish. The team has seen multiple athletes break school records in the 2026 season, including in the 800m, shot put, high jump, and triple jump. We are sure that Titan Coach Barosso is just as eager as our community is to see Jordan shine in Fullerton! Take a moment to give Jordan and his family a shoutout in the comment section. Way to go, Jordan! We are proud of you!

#SchoolSiteHighlight We are at Lime St. Elementary for our annual HUSD Lego Robotics event. The room was buzzing with energy, science, and a whole lot of Lego bricks! ​Students from all over the district were here to show off their skills. This wasn't just "playing with toys" it was hands-on learning at its best! These young inventors were acting like real-world engineers by: ​Designing robots from scratch using Lego parts. ​Coding programs to make their creations move and spin. ​Using STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) to solve tricky problems. ​It is so cool to see our students take what they learn in class and turn it into something they can hold in their hands. These robots might not be doing our laundry yet, but they are proof that our kids have big ideas! 🛠️✨ ​👏 A Huge Thank You! ​This incredible day wouldn't be possible without a lot of hard work. We want to give a special shout-out to: ​Mrs. Amaro: Our HUSD Lego Robotics Coordinator, for her amazing leadership. ​Ms. Lewis: The Lime St. Principal, for hosting this awesome event. ​Our Parents and Staff: Thank you for cheering on these bright young minds! ​We are so proud of our students for being creative and ready for the future. Way to go!

For today's #SchoolSiteHighlight we head to Mojave where eight times a year their seniors earn the right to graduate by completing all necessary state and district requirements. Past administration started a tradition of having students leave their mark on campus and Mojave continues honoring their seniors in this way to this day. What a great tradition to recognize our seniors and congratulations to them on their accomplishments!

#SchoolSiteHighlight ​Check out this new school club at Sultana High School! 🎣 ​Our Sultans have a brand-new way to enjoy the great outdoors. The Iron Hook Anglers fishing club just started this year, and it is already a huge catch! ​It all started with some fun chats in Mr. Nakata’s counseling office. After seeing his fishing decor, students began sharing their own fishing stories. Some were already pros, and others just wanted to learn how to cast a line. These motivated students took charge right away, they named the club, raised money, and couldn't wait to get out on the water! ​Hands-On Learning at Silverwood Lake 🌊 On April 29, 14 students headed to Silverwood Lake for their very first field trip. Led by Mr. Nakata and science teacher Mr. Winczowski, the group spent the day learning real-world skills. This club is about much more than just catching fish; it’s about: ​Taking care of nature and learning about conservation. ​Safety and teamwork while working together on the shore. ​Wellness by unplugging and connecting with the beautiful outdoors. ​The students had a total blast and are already asking, "When is our next trip?!" ​We want to give a huge shout-out to Mr. Nakata, Mr. Winczowski, and the SHS staff for helping our students get excited about the environment. This is just another great example of the well-rounded, "hands-on" education we offer in the Hesperia Unified School District! ​📸 Give them a follow to see their next big catch: @shsironhookanglers

Happy School Lunch Hero Day to our Nutrition Services staff! Our school lunch heroes do so much more than serve meals—they nourish our students with care and compassion every single day. From the first smile at breakfast, to a warm welcome at lunch, to a friendly goodbye during after-school snacks, they create moments that matter. Their dedication goes beyond nutrition—they build connections, offer kindness, and help every student feel seen. They aren’t just heroes… they’re superheroes.

Today's 2nd semester eSports Overwatch final between Mojave High School and Hesperia High School was amazing!

Special thanks to our sponsors Horace Mann Insurance and Converge One Technologies who provided the cash prizes to all of our champions!

For today's #SchoolSiteHighlight We head to Mesquite Trails Elementary. Their VAPA (Visual and Performing Arts) class at Mesquite Trails Elementary is awesome. It gives students a chance to express themselves creatively while building confidence. Through art, music, and performance, students stay engaged and excited about learning in a fun, hands-on way. It also creates a supportive environment where everyone’s ideas are valued, making it a place where creativity and collaboration truly thrive.
