Middle School Academic Services
Advanced Classes
To provide equitable access to advanced courses, each spring, SCUSD universally screens 6th grade students for advanced course placement in middle school. Advanced courses are available in math, science, language arts and history/social studies starting in 7th grade. All students have the opportunity to qualify for any or all advanced courses, through district-wide placement criteria.

The GATE Department will screen a child no more than 3 times during their educational career.
There must be at least 12-months between screenings.
COVID-19
(coronavirus disease 2019)
In accordance with updated guidance from the California Department of Public Health, SCUSD does not currently have a vaccination or testing mandate in place for students and staff. Testing reminds widely and readily available to those who need it. At this time, masks are strongly recommended but not required on campus. We are in regular communication with state and local health leaders and will adjust those requirements as needed.
