Family & Community
From early childhood through high school, UCFSD offers outstanding learning experiences to educate and empower students. Our district is rich in tradition, proud of our students and educators, and supportive of our vision, to unlock the potential in all of us. UCFSD does more than just teach children how to read, write and take tests. We foster a love of learning, teach students how to be critical thinkers, and set them on the path for success
Family and community involvements foster partnerships among schools, family and community groups, and individuals. These partnerships result in sharing and maximizing resources. And they help children and youth develop healthy behaviors and promote healthy families.

Internet Safety & Cyber Bullying
The Internet can be wonderful for kids. They can use it to research school reports, communicate with teachers and other kids, and play interactive games. But online access also comes with risks, like inappropriate content, cyberbullying, and online predators. Parents should be aware of what their kids see and hear on the Internet, who they meet, and what they share about themselves. Talk with your kids, use tools to protect them, and keep an eye on their activities.
