NUSD Umoja! Supporting Black/African American Students to Succeed

Umoja means unity in Swahili. Recognizing that raising the achievement and success of our Black/African American students is a united effort with teachers/staff, our families and community partners, we refer to our intentional efforts in this area as NUSD UMOJA! The tree symbolizes life and growth and the hands represent our collective efforts to work together to support and guide our students to success. 

This webpage is dedicated to the intentional efforts of NUSD to address the needs of our Black/African American students. It is not all-inclusive of all the district's actions but highlights some of the efforts.
