The District is recognized for the quality of leadership at the Board, administration, and school level. Our school board members are truly committed to public education. They provide the District with the tight focus and oversight needed to ensure that we serve our students well, with an emphasis on the whole child. Our principals work closely with our teachers and staff members to set high goals and work diligently to accomplish those goals.
In Laguna Beach Unified School District, we are incredibly fortunate to have strong community support from the PTA, SchoolPower and the SchoolPower Foundation. Their continued support and investment of time, funds, and energy, have contributed to a truly exceptional learning environment for our students, who are able to choose among a wide array of activities and learning experiences. Together, we provide a sterling education for our students, who are the future leaders of our country and our world.
