Student Safety is What We All Care the Most

Occasionally, unexpected inconvenience does happen. This past class day, we got locked out by the school district, but we treated it well and students were all attended in an orderly matter.

Dear Parents, Teachers and Students, 

This past Saturday, 9/13, at 8:30 am, there was no custodial staff from the Hayward Unified School District (HUSD) opening the doors at Stonebrae for us. After Principal Wu and Ms. Fung contacted the security office at HUSD, an officer came and unlocked the gate at 9:00 am.  Another associate came to unlock the classrooms at 10:00 am. Since this incident reflects an inconsistency with the contracted hours listed in the HUSD/MERC Agreement, I am addressing this issue with HUSD.

Thank you, parents, for your patience and understanding of this unexpected inconvenience. A warm thank you goes to the teachers for their effort in keeping the students together in an orderly manner while waiting. I appreciated the effort of the MERC staff in handling this emergent circumstance thoughtfully. The support from PTA in initiating a written letter to the HUSD Superintendent is greatly appreciated.  Above all, I am proud of our students for their cooperation.

 I will keep everyone updated as soon as I hear from HUSD.

Have a wonderful week.

Sincerely,

Diana Kuo, Ph.D. Founder & CEO
