Pajaro Valley Unified School District, in collaboration with UCSC’s Educational Partnership Center, celebrated college bound seniors with a special event. These seniors enjoyed a breakfast reception at Seascape Golf Club, event t-shirts, a photo booth, raffle prizes and an opportunity to gather with other PVUSD students who have signed with the same university.
Kristen Shouse, PVUSD Assistant Superintendent of Secondary Education, introduced an address from Superintendent Dr. Michelle Rodriguez, which included the following sentiment: “It has been a pleasure to have you at Pajaro Valley Unified School District. We hope you found your journey with us inspiring, and motivating, and, most importantly, effective in preparing you for this moment and what comes next.”
The event closed with raffle prizes and students spontaneously posing with their fellow District classmates and newly made friends, holding pendants of their future alma mater. The excitement in the room was palpable.
Over 200 students representing 58 different universities were invited to attend PVUSD College Signing Day. The most popular campuses our students plan to attend include California State University Monterey Bay, Sacramento State University, San Jose State University, and University of California Davis.
It was a pleasure to recognize the accomplishments of these seniors in this unique manner, and based on the favorable response, it is on its way to becoming a popular tradition for years to come.
