Center Joint Unified School District (CJUSD) serves approximately 4,600 students from TK/kindergarten through 12th grade and strives to provide a high-quality education that prepares students to be college- and career-ready. Teachers and staff strive to deliver rigorous academic programs, personalized instruction, and a variety of extracurricular activities to cater to the uniquely different communities and talents of CJUSD students. CJUSD believes that it is important to not only provide excellent educational opportunities to our students, but also create a physically and emotionally safe school environment

We’re proud of the high-quality education in CJUSD schools, but our schools are aging and need repairs. CJUSD is finalizing a comprehensive Facilities Master Plan to prioritize facility needs for our schools. This process includes conducting a thorough Needs Assessment of our school facilities and creating a plan to address the facilities’ needs in our classrooms and on school grounds. This plan is intended to be a road map for addressing facility priorities. It includes projects such as replacing aging plumbing and electrical systems, repairing leaky roofs, and helping meet current school safety and academic standards.

 

Additionally, CJUSD serves a community located in one of California’s most rapidly growing regions, and the District is experiencing significant student enrollment growth. Currently, the District’s student population exceeds the capacity of existing, District-owned permanent school facilities — with approximately thirty-three percent of the District’s classrooms being portables. As our school population grows, it will be necessary to upgrade existing campuses while at the same time constructing new schools to ensure that all local students will continue to have a high-quality education even as our region grows. 

 

To address aging classrooms and school facilities, as well as increasing enrollment, CJUSD is considering placing a bond measure on the November 2026 ballot. As this plan unfolds, the District will be seeking input in a variety of ways from parents, teachers, staff, and our community.  Stay tuned for more information in the coming months.
