Recognizing the People Who Make a Difference Every Day
Employee Appreciation Week Celebrates the Whole CUSD Team, May 19-23, 2025
Behind every student’s success is a team of dedicated professionals and volunteers working together to create safe, welcoming, and enriching schools. The commitment, care, and teamwork that each contributes plays a vital role in helping students learn and thrive.
That's why the Campbell Union School District Governing Board brings it all together with Employee Appreciation Week, May 19-23.
Throughout the year, we take time to recognize the many individuals who contribute to our schools in meaningful ways—from teachers, counselors and paraprofessionals to office staff, custodians, bus drivers, volunteers, and so many others. Employee Appreciation Week is a districtwide opportunity to show gratitude for ALL of the people who make CUSD a great place to work and a great place to learn.
As part of the celebration, the District will host its annual recognition event to honor the Teachers of the Year, Classified Staff of the Year, Volunteers of the Year, and Administrators of the Year for their outstanding service during the 2024–25 school year.
These people, together with our families and community partners, make a difference in the lives of our students every day.
Started in 1978 by two Adaptive PE teachers, the Special Games has expanded to welcome thousands of students from across the Bay Area. The students participate in obstacle courses, frisbee throws, bean bag tosses, 100-yard dashes, and more at West Valley Community College. 
Sigala noted that federal funding enables schools to provide reading specialists, instructional aides, and small-group instruction that free the classroom teacher to provide more individualized attention and enrich lessons to meet diverse learning needs. “Teachers are the core of instruction, but these additional staff make a huge difference for our students,” she said.
