A little look back at a day filled with learning, laughter, and collective growth. ☀️✨ Last month, we joined our friends and partners at Santa Maria Bonita School District for a day of professional sophistication focused on supporting Long-Term English Learners. Together, we explored new strategies, practiced them in real time, and learned from one another in ways that were engaging, energizing, and grounded in purpose. Because when adults continue to grow, students benefit. Every conversation. Every strategy. Every moment of shared learning contributes to something bigger: creating the conditions for more students to thrive, achieve, and graduate year after year. This is what it looks like when we invest in each other and in the futures of the students we serve. #orenda #whereequitylives #education #systemschange #professionaldevelopment

This week, principals, assistant principals and other leaders across the district had opportunities to meet and reflect on the school year. There were highs and lows, lessons learned and breakthroughs to celebrate. We end the school year together as a district, and will enter next year rejuvenated and continuing our commitment to supporting our students and guiding them towards their bright future.

Santa Maria-Bonita School District (SMBSD) Psychologist at Liberty Elementary, Feliciano Aguilar, has been honored with the Key to the District by SMBSD Board Member Ricardo Valencia. Valencia selected Aguilar as his Key to the District recipient, and he was recognized at the Wednesday, May 27 board meeting. The Key to the District is the highest recognition awarded by the SMBSD board to individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the district's mission and values. Initiated in 2022, the award recognizes teachers, staff, volunteers, and community members for their dedication and positive impact on students and families. Honorees are selected by an SMBSD board member or trustee. At the May 27 board meeting, Valencia noted Aguilar is not only a valued bilingual school psychologist, but also serves as a board member for the Santa Maria Joint Union High School District. Valencia called Aguilar, who has been with SMBSD since 2008, a role model. “His role in expanding our dual-language immersion program, which promotes multilingualism in our district, is greatly appreciated,” Valencia said, adding that Aguilar has been instrumental to the program’s progress. “Feliciano is a leader in the Santa Maria-Bonita School District and Santa Maria.” After accepting the award, Aguilar said he plans to continue his work for the district’s committed students, families and colleagues. “My name is on this, but I think it’s also a reflection of a lot of our community members, and all our teachers (and) staff members that stand beside our students every single day to serve them.”
