Dear MJUSD Community:
I’d like to personally thank both the school site and District Office staff for their warm welcome in my first days serving as Interim Superintendent. What continues to bubble to the top with each school site and department visit is the level of loyalty I’ ve witnessed.
October 8th Board Meeting News:
The Board recognized our Warehouse and Grounds crew for the wonderful support and beautification of our campuses. School site staff were also recognized for their commitment for providing our students with academic and personal success opportunities.
Capitol Advisors LLC provided an update for California. There are more one-time monies on the horizon which is good news. The bad news is that it’s very difficult to run a school district or any business on one-time money as both school districts and businesses are obligated with ongoing expenses.
KNN Public Finance, LLC for the general obligation bonds refunding update. As a community MJUSD community has not passed the last two bonds that were intended for school facilities. A concern for MJUSD is the lack of student housing to accommodate the continued growth of our district.
The Board approved:
- The employment contract for myself to serve as Interim Superintendent.
- Several contracts for Educational Services throughout the district for school sites.
- A Five-year educational program agreement with Yuba College for the classroom space for Middle College Academy high school students.
- Out-of-state field trips for Lindhurst and Marysville High School AVID and medical class students to the University of Nevada. Also approved an overnight field trip for Marysville Charter Academy of the Arts students to attend the two-day Lenaea Festival in Folsom CA.
- A contract with Solution Tree to provide staff development to three of our foothill school sites: Browns Valley, Cordua, and Loma Rica.
- The Board accepted the California Community School Partnership Program grant for $2,137,500.
- The purchase of a new portable classroom building for Arboga TK-8 school.
We have many activities, sporting events, and meetings happening throughout the district. I encourage you to visit your school website and check out the school calendar of events. The Sunday Scoop format has changed from a weekly to a monthly broadcast with the first episode airing in November.
On 10/14, the California Department of Education (CDE) released the 2023/2024 California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) for our students. Our Educational Services Department is disseminating the data for trends of improvement and strategies that will close the student achievement gap.
I look forward to working with you.
In education,
Roxanne Brown
Interim Superintendent

Dear MJUSD students and families:
We welcome you back to another great school year, filled with positivity and hope for better things ahead. Please watch this video to enjoy. 24-25 Welcome Back Video
As I start my fourth year in this community, I am excited to continue the work we've begun and to identify new opportunities for our students with ongoing focus on celebrations, communications and Wellness. The academic focus continues to grow with great work in the area of professional development and training across the district and though we are making some positive growth, we have a long way to go.
At MJUSD, we strive to ensure that every student receives the education they deserve. Over the past three years, we've seen tremendous growth in community and business support for our programs, with new partnerships with UC Davis, Chico, and Sac State. This year, interested freshmen at MHS are enrolled in the four-year Medical Academy, and those at LHS are enrolled in the four-year Engineering Academy. These programs integrate college readiness with career readiness, preparing our students to make informed decisions about their futures. Encourage your child to explore all the options and to speak with their counselors to learn more as there are several new courses being offered at schools.
Success begins with regular attendance. Our motto is "Commit to 180!" With only 180 days of school each year, it's crucial for parents and families to ensure students attend daily to learn and thrive. If your child is missing immunizations, please schedule those at the clinics we have set up for you- details were sent to you on Parent Square. If you'd like to learn more about specific supports for your student, please reach out to your school Principal.
As the school year begins, you might notice some new faces in our schools. Please join me in congratulating new Principals, Assistant Principals, teachers and support staff as they join our MJUSD family.
As we get better at engaging more voices in our decision-making process, we have also established the student leadership team, now in its fourth year, and will elect a Student Board Member to represent the entire district. Additionally, we've created parent advisory groups for Hmong, African American, Hispanic, and American Indian families to understand and support the unique needs of these communities. Look out for dates and times for their meetings so you can join to learn how parents are engaging to make our schools better. If you have a concern or question, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
We are excited to open our doors on August 14, 2024, and we are ready for a safe and productive year. The school calendar is attached for your convenience. Remember, you can reach me at any time via email at fasrani@mjusd.k12.ca.us. Wishing each of you a wonderful and safe year and thank you for your confidence in our schools and allowing us to be part of your journey.
Sincerely,
Dr. Fal Asrani
Superintendent
