Pioneer Union Elementary School District

Our 26-acre rural campus is located in the northern Sierra Nevada, 22 miles from Oroville. Pioneer Union Elementary School District (PUESD) was created in 1962 when Berry Creek Elementary School and Bald Rock School were combined. The district provides a TK-8 educational program. Butte County Office of Education operates an after-school program.

The Berry Creek families and school staff believe in educating the whole child. The staff and the board of trustees take pride in helping our children to grow academically, socially and emotionally. We look forward to integrating the latest educational programs, like the Common Core State Standards, Smarter Balanced Assessments, Technological Skills and Career Connected Instruction, in order to prepare our students for future successes in life. We expect students to be actively involved in, enthusiastic about, and responsible for their own learning. We strive to produce a safe and challenging environment where students develop competitive and cooperative skills with a high sense of self-respect.

Dear Students and Parents,

 

I am excited to for another wonderful school year. I look forward to working with the Students, Parents and Community of Berry Creek in order to tackle the social, economic and cultural issues associated with educating our students. The staff and Board of Trustees take pride in helping your children to grown academically, socially and emotionally. We look forward to integrating the latest educational programs i.e. Common Core Standards, Smarter Balanced Assessments, technological Skills and Career Connected Instruction in order to prepare your student for future successes in life.

We believe that the best learning climate is one in which parents, children and staff work cooperatively.

 

 

Conferences with either teachers or other school staff members should be by appointment. For the safety and protection of all students, Visitors must check in at the office before entering the classrooms. You may call the school at any time and leave a message for your child’s teacher. If you have any questions or concerns about programs, practices or procedures please do not hesitate to call me.

 

 

Professionally,
