Hemet Unified School District

Hemet Unified School District is one of the largest geographic areas of any district in California. It covers over 700 square miles of very diverse topography; from valley flat lands 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), three elementary/ middle schools (K-8), four middle schools (6-8), four comprehensive high schools (9-12), one continuation high school (11-12), a vocational education-focused charter High School, a science-based charter Middle/High School (6-10), an Adult Education Center, Independent Study Programs, a Home School Program, and a self-paced on-line 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 passing the California High School Exit Exam. 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.

Special assistance is given to Special Education, English Language Learners and Foster Youth.

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