About

The Monterey Peninsula Unified School District is on its way to becoming one of the finest public school systems in the country. We envision a school system that serves ALL students well, and engages each student in deep learning that prepares them to solve the challenges of the 21st century. This vision takes hard work, commitment, and a focus on continuous improvement.

MPUSD is built on a solid foundation of effective instruction, positive school culture, systems of supports, and collaborative leadership. We are building innovative schools that offer dynamic learning opportunities to all students. While our programs will evolve over time, our focus remains steadfast on increasing student achievement and eliminating performance gaps.

The district was established July 1, 1961, and is nestled along the Monterey Bay. MPUSD stretches from the city of Marina to the north to the city of Monterey to the south, and encompasses the communities of Del Rey Oaks, Marina, Monterey, Sand City and Seaside.

5th Grade Teacher

My students are so curious and eager to learn, and bring their best into our classroom every day. My goal as their teacher is to give them every opportunity to engage and explore their lessons so they can become even more independent and innovative.
