Twenty-nine (29) TR schools recently received awards from the US Department of Agriculture and the California Department of Education for their participation in the 2015 HealthierUS Schools Challenge. Our schools received 6 Gold awards, 19 Silver awards, and 4 Bronze awards recognizing their work in supporting TR students by improving quality of food served, and providing nutrition education, physical education, and opportunities for physical activity. The Nutrition Services Department was recognized for leading and supporting this work.

 

 

In the 2014-2015 school year, TRUSD began working with Attention to Attendance (A2A) to improve attendance at each school site by being proactive with letters and conferences, increasing daily attendance, and reducing chronic absences. Frontier, Hillsdale, Pacific High, Foothill High, and Smythe (7-8) were recognized for demonstrating the most significant attendance improvements in our district. This award also coincides with the launch of our 2015-2016 attendance incentive program.

 

 

A committee comprised of community members, alumni, staff, and students gathered input regarding the naming of the Grant Union High School field. The committee recommended the field be named for Michael Alberghini. The committee will recognize the naming of "Alberghini Field" at the Oct. 23 football game.

 

Secondary Education provided a presentation on the Oct. 14 Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT) School Day, including Advanced Placement Results and actions to increase advanced opportunities for TR students within the school day.
