About SJISD
Welcome

Our website is filled with great information about our schools,
our students, our programs, and our faculty and staff. Browse
inside to learn of progress on our learning goals, of our
terrific opportunities for learning, and of our students’
achievements in academics, athletics, fine arts, and other
activities. We have a great deal of which to be proud.
Meeting Tough New State and Federal Learning Standards
We are
pleased to report that the San Juan Island School District,
along with all of our schools individually, has met the new
federal learning standards referred to as “No Child Left
Behind.” This law requires all schools and school districts to
show annually that students are meeting achievement targets in
reading and mathematics. We have far exceeded the “Adequate
Yearly Progress” standard and continue to perform among the top
school districts in the state. View our
Annual Report to
see detailed information about our students’ performance. In
addition, our District’s “report card” is available on the
Internet at
http://reportcard.ospi.k12.wa.us/
(paper copies are available at the District office).
Teaching Each Student Every Day
Our
faculty and staff are committed to knowing and teaching every
child. We are dedicated to….
> Ensuring that our students who have not met standard on time
are provided the additional instructional support necessary to
meet standard.
> Ensuring that our students who have met or exceeded standard
continue to be appropriately challenged.
> Ensuring that all students meet new graduation standards
beginning with the class of 2008 and beyond.
> Ensuring a safe and supportive learning climate free of
bullying, intimidation and harassment for everyone, and
> Ensuring that we involve parents as partners to assure the
success of every child.
There are opportunities every day to help a child succeed. Call
a school today to volunteer as a mentor, tutor, or classroom
volunteer. We welcome your help!

This year
San Juan Island School District continues to introduce new
learning opportunities in technology, applied learning in our
community, support for home school families, marine sciences
investigations, fine arts, athletics, and more. A community
dedicated to the education of its children makes it all
possible. We are thankful for our community’s ongoing support
and commitment to our children.
