When it comes to parenting or raising a child, there is not a one size fits all guide available to families. But through many years of research, studies have shown that there are certain things parents and caretakers can implement to enhance and improve the quality of life of students and their families. EUSD is very fortunate to count with the partnership with Vista Hill, a non profit organization that provides a variety of mental/behavioral health, educational and social services to students and families.
If you are interested in learning more about how you can best support and understand your child and their needs, we invite you to contact Vanessa Hernandez the Vista Hill Parent Educator for more information at (760) 566-5036.
