Jamul-Dulzura Union School District

An Update from JDUSD: In 2024, the District created a Facilities Master Plan (FMP) to identify and prioritize facility needs in our schools. The District is revisiting this plan and conducting a facilities assessment to identify additional repairs and upgrades needed across our schools. Key projects include continuing with replacing leaky roofs and dry rot, modernizing classrooms and more.

I had so much fun this week talking to these kiddos and getting their insights about our schools. Great job everyone!!! #JDUSDhasHEART #JDUSDitsaboutkids

Thank you to all the parents who joined us for our parent meetings this week! Your input is incredibly valuable and is helping shape next year’s LCAP priorities.

We also know that many families were unable to attend, and we want to make sure every voice is heard. Please take a few minutes to complete this short survey so your feedback can be included alongside the ideas shared at the in-person meetings.

Your thoughts truly make a difference, and we appreciate your time and partnership. Thank you so much for helping us support our students and schools!

Jamul Elementary School and the current Oak Grove Middle School campuses were built in the 1940s and 1990s, respectively, and while some modernization projects have been completed over the years, many classrooms and facilities are outdated and in need of repairs and updates.

The JDUSD Board of Education is exploring funding options to ensure our schools are safe and up to date for our current and future students. We will continue to update the community as we plan to address facility needs throughout the district.

We are here to support you in your Parenting Journey. Please check out this calendar to see if any of these confidential free classes are something you want to attend.

Parenting can be hard and stressful. We often find ourselves being stretched beyond what we thought possible, but did you know you have natural superpowers within you?

La crianza puede ser difícil y estresante. A menudo nos encontramos llevados más allá de lo que creíamos posible, pero ¿sabías que tienes superpoderes naturales dentro de ti?

If you didn't attend last week's OGMS Talent Show, you missed out on seeing some of our middle schoolers displaying their awesome talents and interests. #JDUSDhasHEART #JDUSDitsaboutkids
