July 1, 2010
A century from now it won’t matter
how large your bank account was,
the type of house you lived in,
or what kind of car you drove.
But the world may be different because
you were important in the life of a boy or girl.
You make a difference!
Dear Culver City Community…
Happy July! My plans for retirement did not last long, I am thrilled and excited to be back in the Culver City Unified School District. My heart has always been with this District because of the great students, the outstanding teachers and support staff, the committed parents and community and the quality programs that we as educators have developed to make Culver City Unified School District a community of leaders and learners.
Ours is a great District because we recognize the unique value of each person; we provide active learning in a safe, supportive environment; and we promote a partnership between home, school and community. Our goal for the Culver City Unified School District should be to promote life long learning. Working as a team, we can move closer to making this goal a reality.
Please note that there will be articles in the newspaper regarding the budget and fiscal crisis facing California and California schools, including CCUSD. We will keep you informed about the budget on an ongoing basis and we will be holding budget workshops beginning in the fall.
I will be in the office beginning July 1. Have a great summer!
Patricia Jaffe
Interim Superintendent
