Dear Sweetwater Community,
As a district that proudly serves a diverse student population, we remain steadfast in our commitment to creating safe, welcoming, and inclusive learning environments for every student—regardless of immigration status.
In light of recent national developments, we want to reassure our community that our district policies strictly prohibit immigration enforcement on school campuses without a valid judicial warrant. We are also committed to protecting the confidentiality of student and family information in accordance with the law.
All school staff have been reminded of the proper procedures to follow should immigration or law enforcement officials come to a school site. Additionally, schools have access to resources such as “Know Your Rights” materials and legal support contacts to help guide and protect families. Each school will also receive “Red Cards” in English and Spanish, provided by the Immigrant Legal Resource Center, which outline Constitutional rights in an easy-to-understand format. These cards are also available in multiple languages online. For immigration resources click here.
Thank you for your trust and partnership as we continue to uphold our values of equity, safety, and respect for all. Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to your school principal or district office.
Best regards,
The Sweetwater Union High School District
Estimada Comunidad de Sweetwater:
En nuestro distrito, estamos orgullosos de servir a una población estudiantil muy diversa. Por eso, seguimos comprometidos en crear ambientes seguros, acogedores e inclusivos para todos nuestros estudiantes, sin importar su estatus migratorio.
Ante los eventos recientes a nivel nacional, queremos asegurarles que nuestras reglas no permiten que oficiales de inmigración entren a las escuelas sin una orden judicial válida. También cuidamos mucho la privacidad de la información de nuestros estudiantes y sus familias, como lo exige la ley.
El personal escolar ya recibió recordatorios sobre los pasos correctos a seguir si un oficial de inmigración o la policía llega a una escuela. Además, las escuelas tienen acceso a recursos como materiales de “Conozca sus Derechos” y contactos legales para ayudar a las familias. También entregaremos a cada escuela “Tarjetas Rojas” en inglés y español, proporcionadas por el Immigrant Legal Resource Center. Estas tarjetas explican los derechos constitucionales de forma sencilla, y también están disponibles en línea en varios idiomas. Para ver estos recursos, haga clic aquí: click here.
Gracias por su confianza y apoyo continuo. Si tiene preguntas o inquietudes, por favor comuníquese con la directora o el director de su escuela, o con la oficina del distrito.
Atentamente,
El Distrito Escolar Sweetwater Union High School

Elevating Learning: Modernization
Dr. Moisés G. Aguirre
SuperintendentThe Sweetwater Union High School District (SUHSD) is committed to enhancing the educational experiences of our students, and our ongoing modernization efforts across multiple campuses reflect this dedication. Thanks to community support for passing the bond, we are creating environments that prioritize student well-being, engagement, and success.
For example, Olympian High School students will benefit from a new two-story, 12-classroom building and landscape improvements, enhancing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. A welcoming and well-equipped environment contributes to a positive learning experience.
Castle Park High School is undergoing construction of a new stadium project and soon a new two-story building. These modern facilities will support academic excellence and foster a vibrant school spirit, cultivating a sense of belonging among students.
Mar Vista Academy and Eastlake High School will receive significant upgrades, including a new single-story multipurpose building for Career and Technical Education (CTE) and special education classrooms. These enhancements aim to create a more inclusive environment, ensuring all students feel valued and empowered during their time with us.
Bonita Vista High School will develop a new CTE building, providing essential resources and hands-on learning opportunities that prepare students for future careers. We are dedicated to equipping our students with the skills they need to succeed in a rapidly changing world.
As these projects and several others progress, the Sweetwater District remains committed to improving our facilities and educational offerings. With all these projects, we aim to enrich students’ experiences and foster a lifelong love for learning.
