Overview

  • Parents are a child's first and most important teachers

    Thank you for entrusting your child's education to Murrieta Valley Unified School District! We take the task seriously and we welcome your involvement along the way.

    Students are most successful when a strong partnership exists between school and home and we are very fortunate to live in a community that places a high priority on supporting our young people and a first-rate educational program.

    Our mission is to inspire every student to think, to learn, to achieve, and to care. With everyone's active involvement and support, we can fulfill our mission and continue to make Murrieta Valley Unified an even better school district each and every year.

    Parent Involvement / Volunteerism

    We recognize the important role parents play in the education of their children and the need for an active partnership between home and school. The excellence in our school system is due, in large part, to the involvement of our parents and their volunteer efforts. By sharing their time, talents and resources as members of PTA, helping in classrooms and serving on district advisory committees, our parents are an integral part of the success of students in Murrieta schools.  Each school has a parent involvement plan aligned with the district's Parent Involvement Board Policy and Administrative Regulation.

    Parents as Partners in Our Schools

    There are countless volunteer opportunities that await parents in Murrieta Valley Unified School District. Parents are encouraged to contact their child's teachers and school offices for more information and partnership opportunities.

    In addition, here are some actions parents and guardians can take today:  

    • Meet your child's teacher(s) and share your high expectations for your child with them.
    • Make sure your child is in school every day, on time, well-rested and ready to learn.
    • Check your child's grades, attendance and behavior in Aeries
    • Limit TV, computer and cell phone time and encourage your child's curiosity and love of learning at home.
