Welcome from PVUSD Superintendent Office

Welcome from PVUSD Superintendent Office

Dear PVUSD Students, Families, and Staff,
Welcome back to a new school year!
I hope this letter finds you well and that your summer was filled with rest, joy, and meaningful time with loved ones. As we prepare to open our doors for the 2025–2026 school year, I am filled with excitement, pride, and a deep sense of gratitude for the incredible community we share.
This year, we remain focused on our core mission: to provide every student with a high-quality education in a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment. We are committed to fostering academic excellence, nurturing social and emotional growth, and preparing our students for a future filled with opportunity and promise.
To our returning families, thank you for your continued partnership and trust. To those who are new to our district, welcome! You are now part of a supportive community that puts students at the heart of everything we do. Open communication and collaboration between families and schools are essential to student success, and we encourage you to stay connected, get involved, and reach out with any questions or concerns.
Let’s make this year one of growth, achievement, and connection. When we work together in partnership, great things happen for our students.
Wishing you a safe, joyful, and inspiring start to the school year!
Warmly,
April Smith
