   Our District

   Hemet Unified School District is one of the largest geographic areas of any district in California. It covers over 650 square miles of very diverse topography: from valley flatlands to foothills to mountains. It serves a growing community with a current enrollment of nearly 21,000 students. Preschool centers at nine school locations, eleven elementary schools (K-5), two elementary/middle schools (K-8), four middle schools (6-8), four comprehensive high schools (9-12), one continuation high school (11-12), two middle school/high schools (6-12), a science-based charter, an Adult Education Center, Independent Study Programs, a Home School Program, and a self-paced online instruction program offer a wide variety of learning opportunities for students of all ages.

   Educational programs are designed to be flexible enough to provide a positive educational environment for all students yet structured enough to ensure attainment of the California Content Standards and A-G requirements. Students also are encouraged to use whatever creative talents they possess. With the support of the community, school staffs have developed highly successful programs in music, agriculture, and athletics.

   Hemet Unified strives to maintain a 30:1 district-wide student/teacher ratio.
