Meet Abraham Valdivia, a Kindergarten student at Madison Elementary School. One of his favorite things about SAUSD is that he gets to interact with really cool teachers who make lessons interesting and inspire students to work hard.
Valdivia is #Proud2beSAUSD because SAUSD’s staff offers a lot of support, the facilities are great, and the standard of learning is excellent.
“I wouldn't choose any other district, SAUSD is the best!”
