Many already know that NVUSD school board members hold board meetings twice per month or approximately 26 times a year. Board members also spend considerable time refining governance practices, carrying out the Superintendent evaluation process, and attending subcommittee meetings on finance, policy, and curriculum, to name a few. However, this is just the beginning of their work and commitment. Read more about the role our NVUSD’s Board plays in leading the Napa Valley Unified School District by scrolling down.

Two NVUSD secondary schools are part of the On Track Collaborative. This initiative focuses on the critical transition from middle to high school. Our educators at Silverado Middle School, Napa High School, and the Secondary Instructional Support Services Team are collaborating with other California school districts. The goal is to:

•  improve alignment among 8th and 9th grade staff 

• enhance college and career readiness outcomes for students
