We are embarking on an exciting new venture to complete a district-wide, comprehensive facilities master plan. This process will guide us in developing high-quality educational environments and will provide a compilation of information, policies and data about the District. Designed for ongoing refinement, it will facilitate the creation of educational facilities that evolve alongside our community's needs, aligning closely with the District's objectives for the coming decade. 

We urge all members of our community to contribute their insights at this pivotal stage of the process. Please share your feedback through our brief survey. This survey will remain open through Monday, May 27.

This week, Nayeli Cordero (Beckman), Heily Vicuna and Victoria Garcia (Foothill) and Avril Felipe (Tustin) were celebrated at the 2024 AVID Senior Standout Recognition & Scholarship Presentation. At the celebration, hosted by the Orange County Department of Education, Avril was also presented with a $500 scholarship from SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union and Victoria won the Orange County Centennial Academic Scholarship. In addition, Heily won the Priscilla and Ranney Draper AVID Scholars Fund, a $5000 renewable award for four years, and was also celebrated as an Angels Scholar.

TUSD students were also honored at the 2024 OCDE AVID 8th Grade Standouts recognition. The AVID 8th Grade Standout celebrates outstanding students selected by their AVID teacher/coordinator for their strong academic performance and four-year university potential. Caylee Jamie (Columbus Tustin), Lyla Huff (Hewes), Audrey Lin (Orchard Hills), Addyson Hufnagel (Pioneer) and Marco Rivera Torrez (Utt) were celebrated at the recognition held at Angels Stadium. Congratulations to all of our AVID Standout Students!

Dozens of students are graduating from Tustin Unified high schools and pursuing higher education with the support of Tustin Public Schools Foundation-administered scholarship awards. Students will be studying across the country, as well as right here in Orange County, through memorial, recognition and achievement awards. Each year, community members add to the list of opportunities for students. To learn more about awards and to support or create a scholarship at one or more TUSD high schools, go to www.tpsf.net/scholarships.
