As of tomorrow, MBUSD teachers and staff will begin receiving COVID-19 vaccines from Beach Cities Health. We received an allotment of 90 vaccines for this week. By the end of the week, approximately 25% of MBUSD employees will have received their first dose of the vaccine! Thank you, BCHD!

On #NationalEmployeeAppreciationDay I want to give a HUGE thank you to all of our MBUSD employees. They have taken on new challenges, innovated with online learning, created safe classrooms, and always kept things fun and interesting!

We are thrilled to welcome back our 6th grade Humanities classes today! Thank you for all who helped make this day possible!

We’re thrilled to unveil our newly completed athletic complex at Mira Costa High School. Please enjoy this “virtual ribbon-cutting” via this student-produced video: youtu.be/ltlaa-zaBhU
