What does it mean for our students to be Future Ready? In this video, I share some thoughts about how we are bringing the Portrait of a Graduate to life in SMUSD. Our vision is that all SMUSD students are ready to pursue whatever future they choose upon graduation, or what we refer to as, Future Ready. Watch here

It’s no secret that a rise in mental health concerns for youth have swept the nation. To build on our existing supports for students, SMUSD has partnered with the City of San Marcos to create a new mental health program for all SMUSD schools & students: Let’s Face It. Together.

By connecting students with additional services, including our new Wellness Teams and a 24/7 crisis text line, the goal is to improve their mental health and quality of life.

For details on the program, please visit: www.smusd.org/mentalhealth

The SMUSD transfer window is now open. Intradistrict transfer requests for students who live inside of the district boundaries, as well as Interdistrict transfer requests for students who live outside of the district boundaries, are both open now through March 24, 2023.

New & Current Student Enrollment Dates:
