THE GROSSMONT UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT

The Grossmont Union High School District is a suburban high school district encompassing 470 square miles in the eastern portion of San Diego County. Major cities located in the District's attendance area are El Cajon, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, and Santee, and the unincorporated areas of Spring Valley, Alpine, Lakeside, Dulzura, and Jamul.
There are approximately 22,000 students attending the District’s nine comprehensive high schools, two charter schools, one continuation school, alternative, and special education programs. The District also operates a very comprehensive adult school and Regional Occupational Program. Approximately 52 percent of the high school students are white and 48 percent come from Latino, African-American, Asian, Filipino, Chaldean/Arabic, Pacific Islander, and Native American backgrounds. The approximately 2200 full-time employees in the District, combined with hundreds of hourly employees, make the District the largest employer in East County. The schools located in the Grossmont District are Grossmont, El Cajon Valley, Mount Miguel, El Capitan, Granite Hills, Monte Vista, Santana, Valhalla, and West Hills and Alternative Education Programs such as Chaparral High School, Gateway, Middle College High School and Phoenix Programs.
The Grossmont District provides a quality educational program for its students and has a reputation for excellence throughout the state. The District continues to modify and improve its instructional program to meet the needs of the students it serves. Teacher collaboration through Professional Learning Communities increased opportunities for students in career/technical programs, comprehensive intervention programs for at-risk students, and expanded community partnerships are but a few of the programs that are benefiting our students. Last year, every comprehensive high school in the District showed positive growth in its individual API score and met requirements for AYP.
