Academics

In Santa Barbara Unified, our Educational Services team supports high-quality teaching and learning across all content areas from English Language Arts, English Language Development (ELD), and Mathematics to Science, Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA), Health, and Physical Education. Each subject is guided by California’s state-adopted content standards and frameworks, which provide clear expectations for what students should know and be able to do at each grade level. Our goal is to ensure that every student receives an engaging, well-rounded education that builds critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and lifelong skills for success.
