This month, #LearnerCenteredCollaborative recognized our own Dr. David Moore, Superintendent of Coalinga-Huron Unified School District, as their #CatalyzerOfTheMonth! By forming and empowering a nearly 100-person #GuidingCoalition (including learners, teachers, parents, and even the mayor) to co-create the #CHUSD #FrameworkForTheFuture, Dr. Moore is ensuring that those closest to the work are contributing their experiences, hopes, and talents to a bold strategic plan.

💉 August is # NationalImmunizationAwarenessMonth!

As we get ready for a new school year, now is a great time to make sure your student is up to date on all required immunizations. Staying current on vaccinations helps protect your child and our entire school community.

📚 Before the first day of school, take a moment to:
✅ Check your student’s immunization records
✅ Make sure they have received all required vaccines for their grade level
✅ Submit updated immunization records to your school, if needed

Need to know which immunizations are required? The California Department of Public Health provides a helpful guide for families:

🔗 California School Immunization Requirements: https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/IMM-231.pdf

If your student needs an immunization, contact your healthcare provider to schedule an appointment.

Let’s start the school year healthy, prepared, and ready to learn! 📚✨

👋 Meet the #FacesOfCHUSD! Some journeys come full circle, and we're excited to celebrate one of those today!

Please help us welcome Alfonso Solorio as the new Assistant Principal at #HuronElementary. 💙💛

Mr. Solorio began his #CHUSD leadership journey at Huron Elementary, where he served as a school counselor for about four years, building meaningful relationships with students, families, and staff. He then continued to grow as an educational leader while serving as Assistant Principal at #HuronMiddleSchool.

Now, he's returning to the place where it all began—bringing with him valuable leadership experience, a deep understanding of the Huron community, and an unwavering commitment to student success.

Welcome back to Huron Elementary, Mr. Solorio! We know your dedication, compassion, and leadership will continue to make a lasting difference for our students, staff, and families. 🎉

Behind every great school is an incredible group of people dedicated to helping our students learn, grow, and succeed.

We're excited to launch #FacesOfCHUSD, a new series where we'll introduce you to the people who make Coalinga-Huron Unified such a special place. Throughout the year, we'll spotlight the educators, leaders, and staff members who serve our students and community every day.

We're kicking things off by introducing our new principals and assistant principals for the 2026-27 school year. Some are new to #CHUSD, while others are stepping into exciting new leadership roles—but each brings passion, experience, and a commitment to putting students first.

Today we're excited to introduce Esther Sanchez, our new Principal at #CheneyKindergarten! 🧡🖤

Mrs. Sanchez has been with the #CHUSD family for nearly 25 years. She has spent the last four years as Assistant Principal at #CoalingaHighSchool, where she was an invaluable part of the admin team.

Her years of experience, unwavering dedication, and passion for education have prepared her for this next chapter in leadership, and we're excited to see the positive impact she'll make at Cheney.

Happening this Week - Aug 3-9, 2026
As we wrapped up our final day of #CHUSD Leadership Retreats, our site admin spent time refining our WIGs (Wildly Important Goals)—the few, high-impact priorities that will help focus our work and make the greatest difference for our students this school year. By identifying what matters most, we’re ensuring our energy and efforts are aligned where they can have the biggest impact. After a week filled with collaboration, learning, and planning, we wrapped things up with a little fun together. It was the perfect way to celebrate all the hard work that’s gone into preparing for an incredible year ahead. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this week such a success. We hope everyone has a safe, relaxing, and well-deserved weekend. We’re excited for what’s ahead! #ProudToBeCHUSD

Our #CHUSD leadership team is spending time together this week learning, reflecting, and planning for an incredible school year ahead. 📚🚌

As part of our Leadership Retreat, we're reading #MoveYourBus by Ron Clark. The book challenges us to think differently about leadership, teamwork, and what it takes to create a culture of excellence. It reminds us that every person on a team plays an important role, and that when we are committed, accountable, and working toward a shared vision, we can accomplish amazing things for our students.

We're excited to bring these ideas back to our schools as we continue working together to engage, challenge, and inspire every learner. 🧡🖤
