Stop Asian Hate 2021

Since the start of the pandemic, we have seen a deeply disturbing trend of anti-Asian racism in the country. We want to assure our Asian, Asian-American, Filipino and Pacific Islander students and families that as a Sweetwater Union High School District, we stand with you in your grief and alarm over the recent attacks and the racist acts.

This hatred has no place in our schools. We want to reinforce the urgency of actions to advance diverse, equity and inclusion at our district. We encourage each of us to rededicate ourselves to supporting our Asian, Asian-American, Filipino and Pacific Islander community.

See statement from Moises G. Aguirre, Ed.D. Interim Superintendent regarding the recent Georgia shooting

A dedicated group of educators are planning a series of Asian-American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Awareness events leading up to AAPI Heritage Month and the Ube Eats Conference in May 2021.

We look forward to your engagement with any of these activities. For any questions or clarifications please contact us at suhsdmagkaisa@gmail.com

Letter to SUHSD Community – Feb.01, 2021

Dear Sweetwater Union High School District Families,

We hope that you and your family are having a safe and healthy 2021. As we began our second semester, COVID-19 pandemic continued to have a significant impact on our community and on the entire nation. With the rollout of the vaccine happening, we are hopeful and cautiously optimistic about the coming weeks and months.

With San Diego County still in the “Purple Tier,” schools are not allowed to reopen at this time as outlined in the California Department of Public Health guidance. Therefore, Sweetwater will continue distance learning for the time being. Our next status update will be provided on March 1, 2021.

As a district we will continue and expand small in-person groups and supports where possible. Based on the guidance of the California Department of Public Health and the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF), some athletics programs will begin in the coming weeks. More information on this will be coming from your school sites.

We thank you for your continued support and patience. As a reminder, you can find our district’s reopening plan in this link: reopening plan’s return to in-person instruction. Our district continues to work to prepare for a possible reopening when state guidelines and our local conditions allow us to do this safely.

We sincerely thank you for your continued patience and flexibility, and please remember to follow the guidance of our health professionals: wear a mask; socially distance, and wash your hands.

Estimadas familias del Distrito Escolar de Sweetwater,

Esperamos que usted y su familia han pasado un 2021 seguro y saludable. Cuando comenzamos nuestro segundo semestre, la pandemia de COVID-19 siguió teniendo un impacto significativo en nuestra comunidad y en toda la nación. Con el lanzamiento de la vacuna, tenemos esperanzas y un optimismo cauteloso sobre las próximas semanas y meses.

Con el condado de San Diego todavía en el nivel “púrpura”, las escuelas no pueden reabrir en este momento como se describe en la guía del Departamento de Salud Pública de California. Por lo tanto, Sweetwater continuará la educación a distancia por el momento. Nuestra próxima actualización de estado se proporcionará el 1 de marzo de 2021.

Como distrito, continuaremos y ampliaremos pequeños grupos y apoyos en persona siempre que sea posible. Con base en la orientación del Departamento de Salud Pública de California y la Federación Interescolar de California (CIF por sus siglas en inglés), algunos programas de atletismo comenzarán en las próximas semanas. Más información sobre esto vendrá de los sitios de su escuela.

Le agradecemos su continuo apoyo y paciencia. Como recordatorio, puede encontrar el plan de reapertura de nuestro distrito en este enlace: el plan de reapertura a la instrucción en persona. Nuestro distrito continúa trabajando para prepararse para una posible reapertura cuando las pautas estatales y nuestras condiciones locales nos permitan hacerlo de manera segura.

Le agradecemos sinceramente su paciencia y flexibilidad continuas, y recuerde seguir la guía de nuestros profesionales de la salud: use una máscara; distanciarse socialmente, y lavarse las manos.
