Tens of thousands of students in the East Bay returned to school, with many starting at newly built or renovated campuses. The Castro Valley Unified School District kicked off the year with enthusiasm as families and staff eagerly welcomed students. Renovations in the Mt. Diablo Unified School District were funded by a voter-approved measure, enhancing various school facilities with modern upgrades and technology. School officials expressed the importance of maintaining excitement throughout the school year, emphasizing the energy that students bring to the campuses.
"We are so excited. Staff has been working super hard to make sure that our schools are ready, and we're ready," CVUSD Superintendent Dr. Nia Rashidchi said.
"It's a lot of the renovations that you see, but there's also some behind-the-scenes things that you don't see," Superintendent Dr. Adam Clark said. "They all receive new internet setups, bandwidth, cabling."
"It's natural. I mean, our staff has been waiting for this day to happen, and so they are energized," Rashidchi said.
"The kids when they come into the schools, it just energizes on a daily basis," Rashidchi said.
