The CUSD Town Hall Meeting on foster parenting and supporting foster youth drew a packed house! Heartfelt thanks to all of the families who attended, our community partners who provided important information and resources, and everyone involved in coordinating this event. What an uplifting evening! Save the date for the next #CUSDTownHallMeeting on April 25, when the topic will be Drug Awareness.
