Paso Proud Issue 9 is Here!

Our latest issue of Paso Proud is hot off the virtual press, and we've got plenty to celebrate!

On the cover, we're celebrating A Beautiful Future with the grand opening of the Bearcat Institute of Cosmetology, where PRHS students are turning their creativity into career-ready skills.

Inside this 16-page issue, you'll also discover:

• The Names Behind War Memorial Stadium: Honoring the 12 Bearcats who lost their lives in World War II and the new monument dedicated in their memory.
• Schoolhouse Rock!: A photo-filled look at how our elementary schools turned up the fun for Rock Your School Day.
• Partners in Possibility: How local industry professionals are helping prepare students for careers beyond the classroom.
• Blueprint for the Future: A look at the District's newly approved 2030 Vision Facilities Master Plan.
• A Remarkable Turnaround: The story behind PRJUSD's major credit rating upgrades after nearly eight years of financial rebuilding.

Plus, meet our New Teacher Learning Community, see what's fresh in Food Services, and catch the upcoming PRHS Theatre Company's production of Witches!? In Salem!?

We hope you enjoy this inside look at the people, programs, and progress that make us #PasoProud!

A Spanish translation will be available in the coming days. Until then, you can catch up on past issues of Paso Proud in Spanish here!
