Today was session three where #BanningUSD community partners, teachers, administrators, and union leadership continued working on the stages of NCEE System Design Benchmarking to embark on work to focus on aligning our systems to sustainably improve student performance driven by the calibrated input of district leadership and community partners. This session had very interesting discussions on ensuring students are college and career ready and how we ensure that occurs.
We are excited to continue this work at Banning Unified School District to create a better future for the students we serve.

The middle school Summer Enrichment Art classes have been busily working on paper mache art this week! It was cool to see what began as balloons earlier in the week, become art by today. Well done students! Looking forward to their video production in a few weeks. #BanningUSD
