🎓 Congratulations to all of our incredible Saratoga Union School District (SUSD) students who celebrated their promotion ceremonies across our four sites on Friday! Turning the page to a new chapter is a massive milestone, and we could not be prouder of the dedication, resilience and growth these students have shown. This year, we celebrated 232 eighth graders and 175 fifth graders as they take this exciting next step. Thank you to our amazing teachers, staff and families who supported them every step of the way. As these bright individuals move forward, SUSD remains dedicated to nurturing minds and inspiring futures.

Redwood Middle School recently held its third annual incoming sixth grade parent informational meeting, a collaborative effort between the school and Parent Teacher Association. Attending guardians asked Principal Steve Hamm questions along with a four-person student panel, including two sixth graders and two seventh graders. Students answered parent inquiries off the cuff with topics ranging from bedtime to homework, the school drop off process, sports, clubs, activities and more.

🔔 School is almost out for summer… but for three of our amazing SUSD staff members, school’s out forever! Last week, our District family came together for a special retirement celebration to honor:

-Ann Borgia Camp, a third grade teacher at Saratoga Elementary
-Cheri Bryan, an instructional aide at Saratoga Elementary
-Matt Ramona, District gardener (not present)

Their well-deserved retirements will be effective on the last day of school.

Mikki Jordan, a former second grade teacher at Argonaut Elementary (not present), was also invited in recognition to the event, as her retirement was following the 2024-2025 school year.

Led by Saratoga Teachers Association President and Redwood Middle School physical education teacher Jennifer Vandenberg, the event brought together generations of SUSD employees to celebrate the incredible legacy of those moving on to their next chapter. It was an evening filled with heartfelt speeches, lots of laughs, proud families and even song parodies performed by the Saratoga Elementary staff.

Saratoga Union School District teachers and classified staff define "service above self" every day, and last week our community made sure the dedicated employees across our three elementary and one middle school felt that appreciation right back! 🚀🍎 From teachers being gifted flowers from students to a "Trip Around the Moon" featuring "Fueling Station" breakfasts and "Lunar Landing" taco trucks and parents from PTAs and different grade levels providing meals, our community truly showed up as educational partners. This incredible support helps us maintain an innovative school system that fosters student well-being and ensures our kids reach for the stars in a safe and nurturing environment. Thank you to our staff for your commitment to continuous improvement and for instilling leadership, responsibility and global citizenship in our students every day.

Fifth graders from Argonaut, Foothill and Saratoga elementary schools took a big step off the bus and landed at Redwood Middle School on Tuesday, where administration is dedicated to ensuring its future Griffins are ready to take flight. While school counselor Angela Deans was previously giving presentations at each of the sites, the school decided to move to this on-campus model last year after hearing there was a need to give students real experience on campus to truly help ease tensions for the future and make the transition feel like home. Griffin student leaders led tours of classrooms in action following a presentation from administration and a video produced by the school’s very own Griffin News Network. Visitors even departed with Griffin Pride prizes and giveaway bags!
