About Us:

Our goal in the Santa Cruz Valley school district is to provide a top quality education for every student, every day. In a world where it’s easy to feel like just another number, we relish the opportunity to know every student on an individual basis and to appreciate the value that each one brings to the collective whole. We recognize that there are many different ways to learn, and we work hard to ensure that every student has the opportunity to grow and thrive.
