Have you heard about Summer Academy at your school site? We have an exciting opportunity for students to extend the learning experience over a four-week period between June 7 - July 2, 2021.

You spoke, we listened. We continue to receive stakeholder feedback and want to get a date on stakeholders' calendars to review the DRAFT Local Control Accountability Plan before it goes to public hearing on June 8 and final adoption on June 22.

In an effort to reach all stakeholders, MPUSD is hosting an in-person Local Control Accountability Plan engagement meeting on Thursday, May 20 at Seaside High School to continue gathering input to inform its planning efforts and prioritize district funding on programs and services for students.

As we head toward the end of the school year, MPUSD will host the last monthly Town Hall meeting to discuss Summer Academies and what the 2021-2022 school year will look like. We hope you can join us for a very brief presentation followed by plenty of time for questions and answers.

The Classes of 2021 from Central Coast High, Marina High, Monterey High, Seaside High and Monterey Adult School will graduate on Tuesday, June 1, 2021 at the Monterey County Fairgrounds. NOTE: This location has changed from a previous location due to updated CDPH guidance.

The Monterey County Special Education Local Plan Area (SELPA) hereby gives notice that a public hearing will be held on May 20, 2021 at 9 a.m. via Zoom.

Engagement of students, parents, staff and community members is important to MPUSD. We want to hear how our schools, and the district, are doing to involve and engage you in educating students. Your input is valuable as we align our goals and financial resources in our Local Control Accountability Plan and new Extended Learning Opportunities Grant Plan.

On Tuesday, February 9, 2021, our Board of Education discussed and approved the decision making timeline for the reconfiguration and consolidation of MPUSD schools.  You may recall last school year the district convened a Vision 2025+ Task Force and engaged stakeholders in multiple community engagement meetings and surveys about the future of our schools. One of the key focus areas was whether or not to maintain 6th grade at the elementary school level.

Due to traffic congestion at Seaside High, our partners at All in Monterey and The Food Bank of Monterey County, the Free Food for Families program has changed slightly. Mondays will be at Seaside High and Wednesdays will be at Monterey Peninsula College. See updated flyer.

The district offered a Town Hall to the community on the state of the community health, update on future in-person instruction, and reconfiguration/consolidation of elementary schools. PowerPoint and video archive are now available.
