2020-21 School Year Survey: IUSD remains committed to keeping our community informed about our planning efforts for the 2020-21 school year and the safe return of students and staff.

Input from our families is critical to our planning process. Please take a moment to read an important message from Superintendent Walker and take the 2020-21 Family Survey.

Please see the latest update from Superintendent Terry Walker.

The IUSD Board of Education and Superintendent Walker have extended the closure of IUSD schools through Friday, May 1. In recent weeks, the State of California has continued to escalate its efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19, through the executive order issued by Governor Gavin Newsom, calling for California residents to stay at home, with exceptions for attending to essential needs. A presidential Major Disaster Declaration also acknowledged the scope of this crisis and bolstered California’s emergency response efforts.

Locally, the Orange County Health Care Agency tightened restrictions on public and private gatherings and the Orange County Superintendent of Schools, Al Mijares, expressed his support for Orange County school districts to extend school closure dates. “Keeping children home from school is a drastic measure, one that shows how seriously health officials and educators are taking this public health threat,” said Mijares. “We must do our part now to flatten the curve.” See Superintendent Walker’s full update below.
