Dear CJUSD Families,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the students, parents, faculty and staff at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. We mourn for the victims of this unthinkable tragedy.
Our young people are most precious to us, and their safety and well-being are our top priority. Our schools will continue to run lockdown, school evacuation, fire, and earthquake drills. We will continue to do the necessary work to prepare for an emergency to ensure our school community remains safe.
Below are a few resources that might help during this difficult time.
