Statement from CVUSD

The Pandemic has been difficult for everyone. We want to express our appreciation to our community for all you have done to protect our students during these very challenging last two years. Castro Valley is nearly 90% fully vaccinated, and masks and social distancing quickly became a normal part of our everyday life. Parents and guardians, teachers, staff and administrators were crucial in reinforcing safety measures. Families carefully completed the daily health screening, kept students with symptoms at home, and ensured that exposed students were quarantined and tested. Those measures, along with all mitigations in place such as adequate ventilation and easily accessible testing, helped us to avoid the worst of the pandemic and to open our schools and keep them open this year. Now we hope that the omicron peak is behind us. We will continue to rely on the public health authorities to guide us, and again, we thank the community for their outstanding efforts to protect us all.
