Inclusion is a core tenet of schooling in our district and we appreciate the opportunity to celebrate their skills and talents. The West Valley Community College field was a-buzz as parents, teachers, aides and volunteers cheered for CUSD students and the nearly 1,000 other Bay Area athletes with special needs who gathered to compete in a variety of sports and events. The Special Games program is put on annually by all of the Kiwanis Clubs in the South Bay and Peninsula, and CUSD is proud of the students representing us there.
