Dublin Schools Chief Talks Plans For New School Year, Graduation

DUBLIN, CA — The Dublin Unified School District plans to reopen schools full-time, five days per week this fall.

DUSD Superintendent Daniel Moirao made the announcement at a special DUSD board meeting held Tuesday night. Students who wish to continue with remote learning may do so, the district said.

He also announced that middle and high schools do intend to move forward with graduation and promotion ceremonies.

This comes after the state shared COVID-19 safety guidance for holding graduation ceremonies. Schools must have in place capacity limits and require pre-registration, among other things, Moirao said.

Principals are working out the details now, but he said Valley High School's ceremony will be held May 26, while Dublin High School's ceremony will be May 28. Middle schools will hold promotions May 26 through 28.

The board, Moirao and community members also took time during Tuesday's meeting to honor the late Trustee Catherine Kuo, who was killed while volunteering March 24 at Fallon Middle School. Check Dublin Patch Wednesday for more reporting on tributes to Kuo's legacy.
