A Message from Mrs. Q - Superintendent

Mrs Quinones, Superintendent in a black blazer smiles confidently, posing near a modern building.

Welcome to Wildcat Nation!  On behalf of our dedicated educators, support staff, and administration, I am thrilled to invite you to explore the many opportunities our district offers. Our theme this year, “Lighting the Way with Hope and a Champion Spirit,” reflects our commitment to empowering every student to thrive. Together, we embrace a culture of excellence that fuels lifelong success, driven by staff members who truly go above and beyond. Our team carries an energy like none other, bringing passion, creativity, and a heartfelt commitment to the success of every child.

Our Portrait of a Wildcat lays out the traits we aim to instill in every staff member and student who passes through our schools: integrity, confidence, critical thinking, communication, and adaptability. These qualities ensure our students are not only academically prepared but also equipped to be successful in an ever-changing world. Our newly refreshed strategic plan is guided by these traits and places a strong emphasis on increasing student engagement, nurturing professional growth among our staff, and cultivating powerful connections with our families and community.

As part of these efforts, we’re proud to present our redesigned district webpage—a streamlined, user-friendly resource to help you stay informed and involved. Here, you’ll find timely updates and a wealth of information that reflects the vibrant spirit of our district…of being “The Finest in the West.”  Thank you for being an essential part of our school community. Together, we will continue lighting the way to a brighter future for all.

Go Cats!

Mrs. Q
