Dear Brahmas,
This year's Walnut Valley Education Foundation (WVEF) Gala, "A Night of Stars," was a wonderful night of celebration and appreciation for so many amazing individuals who support our schools in Walnut Valley and Diamond Bar High School! Special thanks to our WVUSD Board President & WVEF President, Mrs. Cindy Ruiz! We had the honor of recognizing a distinguished alumni, Ms. Rachel Scott, and Parent Partner in Education, Mrs. Tjieu Ngoe (Chang)! Ms. Scott graduated from Diamond Bar High in 2011 and Mrs. Chang is our Brahma Booster President and we are grateful to celebrate them!
Go Brahmas!

RE: LCAP WVUSD Parent Survey Spring 2023
Dear WVUSD Parents and Guardians,
We are updating the 2021-2024 Local Control & Accountability Plan (LCAP). The LCAP outlines our District's annual goals and actions to support all students, particularly English Learner students, low-income students, and foster youth. The LCAP is reviewed and refined through a collaborative process involving parents, students, teachers, administrators, and support staff.
An important part of the process is seeking parent input to guide and evaluate the ongoing development and implementation of services in our school and district. Please take some time to complete the following survey, which will provide valuable feedback for our work.
All questions ask for your feedback for the 2022-2023 school year. The survey should take roughly 5-10 minutes. Please complete this survey by May 5, 2023.
For your convenience, we have translated the survey into Mandarin as well. Please select the survey link below that best matches your language needs.

回复:LCAP WVUSD 2023 年春季家长调查
敬爱的WVUSD家长和监护人,
我们正在更新 2021-2024 年地方控制与问责计划 (Local Control & Accountability Plan簡稱LCAP)。 LCAP 概述了我们学区的年度目标和行动,以支持所有学生,特别是英语学习者学生、低收入家庭学生和寄养青年。 LCAP 通过家长、学生、教师、管理人员和支持人员参与的协作过程进行审查和完善。
该过程的一个重要部分是寻求家长的意见,以指导和评估我们学校和学区服务的持续发展和实施。 请花一些时间完成以下调查,这将为我们的工作提供宝贵的反馈。 所有问题都征求您对 2022-2023 学年的反馈。 问卷调查大约需要 5-10 分钟。 请在 2023 年 5 月 5 日之前完成此问卷。
为了您的方便,我们也将调查翻译成普通话。 请选择下面最符合您语言需求的调查链接。
