Montecito Union School

Montecito Union School, recognized as a California Distinguished School, is a one-school district serving the community of Montecito with grades kindergarten through sixth grade.  The district is comprised of a middle to upper socio-economic population and has a current enrollment of 400 students.  It is governed by a five-member board of trustees and is administered by a superintendent and a principal. 

The Montecito Union School Mission Statement and Core Beliefs

Our Mission is to challenge the hearts and the minds of students and to provide them with an educational experience that serves as a roadmap for future success in an ever-changing society.  We will accomplish this as a partnership of children, parents, school staff, and community, working together to ensure that each student:

  • Experiences success through a dynamic and balanced curriculum
  • Takes responsibility for meeting high academic and social standards
  • Becomes a responsible, respectful citizen who contributes to society
  • Develops a sense of pride in his/her accomplishments
  • Values the life-long process of learning

The Mission Statement is supported by certain core beliefs held by all members of the educational community:

  • The child is our most important resource
  • Education is a collaborative process involving the child, parent, school and local community
  • Teaching methodologies must be appropriate for the curriculum and address the differences in individual learning styles and abilities
  • Assessment is a critical part of the educational process

 

 

MONTECITO UNION SCHOOL DISTRICT
2005 - 2006 DISTRICT GOALS

The Board of Trustees, administration, staff and community will work together to accomplish these goals in an atmosphere of collaboration.

  1. The District will evaluate and monitor the allocation and use of instructional time for core and specialist programs.  The process will include a review of scheduling issues and innovative alternative scheduling options.
  2. The District will develop and implement strategies to support and manage the impact of an increasingly diverse student population.
  3. The District will ensure there is annual, rigorous review of content and instructional methods in core curriculum areas and specialist programs with the intent of having dynamic and continually improving programs.  Protocols and procedures will be established to assure the Board that the District staff is integrating best practices and current research.
  4. With the goal of better informing and involving all stakeholders, as well as creating an open and positive climate, communication will be increased, especially interactive, face-to-face communication, with students, staff, teachers, parents, and community members.
  5. The District will work to acquire the property directly adjacent to the school.  Efforts may include the following:
    1. Developing a communications plan that clarifies key messages relating to the acquisition.
    2. Defining the Board and District role in the process.
    3. Articulating potential uses for the property.
  6. The District will work to increase school site safety by devising strategies to decrease vehicular traffic on the school premises.
