District Cell Phone Policy Staff Feedback Survey

Parents, we want to hear from you! In January 2025, CNUSD implemented a new cell phone policy for all students. As we continue to monitor this policy's rollout and effectiveness, we want to gather feedback from our families to better understand its impact across all grade levels.

Your input is incredibly valuable and will help guide future decisions to ensure the policy continues to support a safe and focused learning environment for all students. Please take a few minutes to complete our brief survey linked below.

This feedback survey will close on Friday, June 6th.

Introducing Standards-Based Report Cards for TK–6th Grade Students

Starting with the 2025–26 school year, CNUSD will begin using Standards-Based Report Cards for all TK through 6th grade students. This new style of report card is meant to give families clearer and more helpful information about how their child’s learning and progress.

What’s different:

No more letter grades — instead, you’ll see how well your child is learning important skills for their grade
More details — you’ll know what your child is doing well, where they’re making progress, and where they might need more support
Easy to understand — the new format helps families see what their child is working on and how to help at home
Student-focused — helps kids set goals and take more responsibility for their own learning

Our goal is to help families better understand their child’s strengths and learning needs so we can all work together to support their success. We believe this approach will give students clearer goals and motivate them to take ownership of their learning.

We’ll be sharing more information throughout the year, including chances for families to learn how to read the new report cards and support learning at home. Watch the video below to learn more.

Parent Information Webinar

To support this transition, CNUSD will be hosting Parent Information Sessions. These sessions will give parents an opportunity to learn more about the new report cards and find out how they can support their child’s learning at home. The first webinar will be on June 25th at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Unified Sports: A Year of Teamwork, Inclusion, and Joy

This year, CNUSD proudly launched Special Olympics Unified Sports, a program that brings together students from all backgrounds as teammates—on the field, and across our school communities. Unified Sports builds more than athletic skills—it fosters empathy, friendships, and a truly inclusive culture.

Throughout the year, CNUSD hosted three Unified Sports tournaments, culminating in a districtwide Unified Sports Day on May 2nd at Corona High. The event brought students from all CNUSD high schools together for a celebration filled with cheers, high-fives, and heartfelt moments.

Seniors were honored with letterman patches, marking a memorable end to a year defined by connection and achievement.
