🔔 Two towns, one community—and something golden to celebrate!

Coalinga-Huron Unified School District is a 2026 #GoldenBellAward #Winner in the category of #CommunitySchools through Partnerships and Collaboration!

Our winning submission, “Two Towns, One Community: Community Schools as a Rural Strategy for Student Success in Coalinga-Huron Unified,” highlights the power of bringing schools, families, and community partners together to support student learning, health, and well-being. This recognition celebrates the power of that work. When schools, families, and community partners come together, we create more opportunities for our students to thrive. 💛

Thank you to the staff, families, and partners across Coalinga and Huron who make this work possible. This celebration belongs to all of you!

🧡 October is # BullyingPreventionMonth

Every student deserves to feel safe, included, and valued at school. We can all help build that kind of community: invite someone in, speak up when something isn’t right, and check in with someone who may need support.

Families, please keep the conversation going at home. If your child experiences or witnesses bullying, encourage them to tell a trusted adult at school. Together, we can make sure every student knows they belong. 🧡🖤

That text can wait. The street can’t. 📱⬇️

Phones, headphones, and other distractions can make it harder to notice turning vehicles, bicycles, scooters, changing traffic signals, uneven sidewalks, and other unexpected hazards.

When you’re walking—especially when crossing a street—look up, stay alert, and arrive safely.

A few seconds of extra attention can help keep you and everyone around you safer. 🧡🖤 ​

📚 #AttendanceAwarenessMonth may be wrapping up, but attendance matters all year long!

Throughout September, schools across the country have recognized Attendance Awareness Month and the important role regular attendance plays in student success.

As we close out the month, we want to leave you with one simple reminder: Every day a student is at school is another opportunity to learn, connect, grow, and belong. 🧡🖤

We also know that absences sometimes can’t be avoided. Students get sick, families face challenges, and life happens. This isn’t about perfect attendance—it’s about working together to help students be at school, on time, and ready to learn whenever they can.

And our conversation doesn’t end with September! Throughout the school year, we’ll continue sharing #AttendanceMattersMonday reminders about why showing up matters.

Every student. Every day. Every opportunity.

🌱 #LeadingMeaningfulChange Today, our #GuidingCoalition came together for the first time this school year as we continue our work with Learner-Centered Collaborative to move #CHUSD’s #FrameworkForTheFuture from vision to reality. This year, our focus is Leading Meaningful Change—digging deeper into the Framework, turning our shared vision into meaningful action, and ensuring the work we do creates lasting impact for our students, staff, families, and community. 🧡🖤 And we want to bring you along with us! Starting tomorrow, we’ll begin a monthly series highlighting different parts of the Framework for the Future—breaking down what they mean, why they matter, and what they can look like across CHUSD. The Framework isn’t just a document. It’s a shared vision for where we’re going—and the work to bring it to life is just beginning. By, With, & Through. Together, we’re building the future of CHUSD. 🌱 #ProudToBeCHUSD

Today, we continued moving our #FrameworkForTheFuture from vision to action! 🧡🖤 Working alongside Learner-Centered Collaborative, our team continued developing a Scorecard that will help us identify the strategic actions that move our priorities forward—and, just as importantly, determine how we’ll know those actions are making a difference. We are being intentional with the moves we make, looking for meaningful evidence of progress, learning along the way, and making adjustments when needed. Each step brings our Framework for the Future further to life as we work toward what matters most: creating the best possible outcomes for our students, our schools, and our entire #CHUSD community.

📵 Eyes up. Phone down. Walk safely.

Whether you’re walking to school, heading across town, or just crossing the street, staying aware of your surroundings can make all the difference.

Take a moment before stepping into the roadway: put the phone down, look both ways, listen for approaching traffic, and make sure drivers have time to see you and stop.

A safer community starts with all of us paying attention. 👀🚶‍♀️🚗
