From the Cerritos City Council 4 2016-17 ABC Unified School District Back-to-School Resource Guide A Message From The Superintendent - Dr. Mary Sieu In 1965, forward thinking educators unified Artesia, Bloomfield and Carmenita School Districts cre- ating the ABC Unified School District. Their goal was to create world class schools among the diverse communities served in the District. Needless to say, times and technologies have changed since then but our core mission remains the same—to provide the highest quality educational experience we can envision. We remain committed in our focus on raising student achievement with our 21,000 (TK-12) students as well as our preschool and adult learners in the District. ABCUSD I have been with ABCUSD since 1989 and this is my fifth year as the District Superintendent. I feel Superintendent great pride and humility when I consider my legendary predecessors. However, I recognize that the Dr. Mary Sieu strength of our District is our ability to leverage individual talents of our stakeholders including our remarkable Board of Education, dynamic teachers, our support staff, amazing parents and community members. As a result, our District has thrived throughout the past fifty one years to become one of the top perform- ing districts in the State. ABCUSD is fortunate to serve a number of communities that truly understand the importance of education.

With the passing of Assembly Bill (AB) 104 on July 1, 2015, the legislature provided the $500 million Adult Education Block Grant (AEBG) to the California Community College Chancellor’s Office to jointly work with the California Department of Education to expand and improve the delivery of educational services to adult learners across the state through the establishment of regional consortia of educational providers. Under AB 104, ABC Adult School is a proud member of PAACE (Partnership for Adult Academic and Career Education) consortium which includes Cerritos Community College, Downey Adult School, Norwalk-La Mirada Adult School, Bellflower Adult School, and ABC Adult School. The upcoming WASC accreditation will chart a new course for ABC Adult School, as the school is implementing its 3-year PAACE consortium plan during the WASC self-study years. ABC Adult School prides itself on the rigorous, standard-based programs we offer. We continue analyzing the data, looking at ways to improve our programs, and making our best efforts in completing the rigorous WASC self-study process during these Adult Education trying times.
