Our school district serves approximately 6,200 students in 10 schools which include a preschool program, six elementary schools, two middle schools, and two high schools. Located in the southern part of Santa Cruz County, our students and families bring to our school community a rich cultural background that reflects life on both sides of the border.
MISSION STATEMENT: We believe education is a drawing forth of the child’s innate being. In a structured and nurturing environment, we provide tools for successful living and learning: respect, responsibility, confidence, discovery and joy.
Pinnacle Charter High School -- Nogales offers students within the Nogales area an opportunity to take high school courses that many of the schools in this very rural area are not equiped to offer. Because Pinnacle Charter High School is small, our staff can give more individual help to students. This type of classroom environment fosters more serious students to finish their classes with minimal distractions. With our online program, the course offerings is much broader than what would otherwise be available in this area.
MISSION: We believe that everyone will experience successful learning every day.
PRIORITY STANDARD: Student Achievement and Accountability
SUPPORTING STANDARDS: High Quality Staff, School Climate, and Community Involvement
