Monterey Peninsula Unified School District

The Monterey Peninsula Unified School District strives to be one of the finest public school systems in the country. We envision a school system that serves all students well, and engages them in deep learning so they are prepared for college and career. The most important factor in a scholar’s academic success is teacher and staff quality. MPUSD is committed to attracting, developing and retaining the most highly qualified, enthusiastic, dedicated and diverse teachers and classified staff for our scholars. At MPUSD, the following five values form the foundation of our district: - Every person matters - Each day counts - Learn something new everyday - Improve with purpose - We’re better together MPUSD is governed by an elected seven-member Board of Education.
