Designated by the Board of Education, the Chula Vista Elementary School District (CVESD) proudly celebrates Classified Employee Week from May 19-25, 2024. With nearly 1,763 classified, management, supervisory, confidential, and support personnel, classified employees are integral to our district's success.

This week, we honor the outstanding efforts of our classified staff, including the 2023-24 School Site Classified Employees and the District Classified Employee of the Year, all of whom have shown exemplary dedication in their roles.

This year's nominees were selected based on the rigorous criteria from the San Diego County Office of Education’s Classified Employee of the Year Program. These individuals exemplify our district's vision and values through their teamwork, leadership, and significant contributions to their sites and the district. Congratulations to all our classified employees for your dedication and leadership.
