Welcome to the Ventura Unified School District

LCAP Survey Now Open!

Ventura Unified School District is inviting families, students, staff, and community members to take the annual Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) Survey.

The survey helps guide how limited funding is used and which programs, services, and supports should be prioritized for students in the coming school year. Community members are encouraged to participate, even if they do not currently have a student enrolled in VUSD. Your feedback is very important to us.  Thank you!  https://bit.ly/lcap2026 

Our Promise

When it comes to delivering an education that prepares students for a future in the world today, a one-size-fits-all approach no longer suffices. Students must be able to think critically, approach problem-solving with agility and creativity, be open to exploration, and adapt to new ideas and pathways they will invariably encounter throughout their lives.

At Ventura Unified School District, we cultivate a wealth of diverse academic programs so every student in our community has the chance to explore and engage with a learning environment that not only challenges them academically, but also promotes their growth as people, scholars, and citizens of the world, in an open and positive environment.

Our passion is to help the children in our schools find their passion—academically and personally—believing that each and every student has a brilliant future ahead of them.
