Our Vision

Our Special Education Department works collaboratively to support all students to reach their true potential as learners.  The SCESD supports student success by ensuring students achieve proficient reading skills to prepare for middle school and high school success. Our students participate in general education programs to the greatest extent possible. We are committed to supporting our students to achieve their best. 

Our Services

The Salinas City Elementary School District serves students with disabilities from preschool to sixth grade. We operate classes to serve all students, and classroom learning goals are aligned with state standards and the Preschool Learning Foundations.
