school level in the Temecula Valley Unified School
District, and 70% is required by Governing Board policy
to pass a course. Many programs exist to support
academic success including Advanced Placement courses,
AVID, Math and Reading Workshops, after school tutoring,
ELD/SDAIE classes, Special Education classes, class size
reduction in freshman English and algebra, algebra and
geometry courses offered at two speeds, and Digital High
School technology. A wide variety of campus clubs and
activities further promotes a positive campus climate.

QUALITY
OF INSTRUCTION
TVUSD
aligns its curriculum with state standards and
provides enrichment activities at the site
level to support instruction. The District
also holds a philosophy that each school
principal should be the Instructional Leader
on that campus.
As such, principals take an active role in the
learning process at each TVUSD school,
spending much of their day in the classroom.
TVUSD teachers are evaluated and given areas
for improvement by their principals. To aide
in this endeavor, administrators are trained
in evaluation skills.
This training is designed to help
administrators evaluate their staff in a
manner that will produce better teaching in
the classroom and thus enhance student
success. Staff development days enhance this
quest for excellence by giving teachers the
tools needed to succeed in an on-going manner.
