Citrus Heights Schools

The City of Citrus Heights is home to 12 San Juan Unified schools, where we offer preschool, transitional kindergarten and K-12 learning experiences for students. We are preparing students for the 21st century with state-of-the-art technology, upgraded facilities and small class sizes. Come explore our campuses!
 

Early Learning Options

Our schools offer several different options to meet your child’s needs, from transitional kindergarten to traditional full-day and modified-day kindergarten. Onsite before- and after-school programs are also available through the Discovery Club and Bridges programs.

Our transitional kindergarten and kindergarten programs can provide a well-rounded beginning to your child’s education. With hands-on activities, art and technology learning opportunities, your child will develop the building blocks necessary to excel in one of our district’s Citrus Heights schools.
