What an honor to celebrate 67 CUSD parents who graduated from the Families Acting Towards Results (FACTOR) program! Two 5-week programs were open to all CUSD families and held at Westport Elementary (focus on college readiness) and M. Robert Adkison Elementary (focus on emotional development and technology). Way to support student success! 🙌 #FACTOR #CeresLearns
