Dear Menifee Union Students, Staff and Families,

We reached the end of a school year that will not be forgotten. I visited many schools

for their end of the year “Clap Outs” and “Promotion Drive-Throughs,” I was

overwhelmed by the sense of pride and belonging among our students, staff, and

families. All of you made a challenging situation wonderful, Thank you!

The survey sent out to families regarding preference for instructional models for the

20-21 school year indicates that approximately 60% of our families desire to return to

Traditional school while 27% desire Blended, and still 13% indicate they will choose Full

Distance Learning. We certainly hope to return to Traditional School and will also offer

a Distance Learning option. If we are under social distancing restrictions on August 12,

MUSD will develop a blended/hybrid model. We will continue to communicate through

the summer to keep everyone informed on next steps.

On behalf of the Menifee Union School District, I want to address the tension and

awareness of injustice that has been seen and felt in our country in the wake of the

death of George Floyd. MUSD desires to value the diversity represented in our amazing

students, talented staff, and beautiful community. In MUSD, we are committed to

supporting school communities that value the voice, experience, and potential for ALL.

We hope that during this summer our students dream of the possibilities for a future of

success and a world that is better because of their impact. We look forward to the

opportunity to help them achieve these dreams.

Your Team in Education Services
