The mission of the Conejo Valley Unified School District is to meet the academic, cultural, social, and individual needs of students in order to prepare them to make a meaningful contribution to a democratic society.

The Board of Education believes that the District mission can be best achieved through the uniform application of a standard of higher expectations in all areas for students, district employees, and parents of students.

The Conejo Valley Unified School District is located 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles and serves a suburban, largely middle to upper middle class community. The student population is drawn from the communities of Newbury Park, Thousand Oaks, and Westlake Village. The District's rich history has led to strong traditions working toward a vision of the future. This is a family oriented community with large parent involvement and support. The community is rich with cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic diversity.

The District is comprised of 20 elementary schools, with a new elementary scheduled to open in fall 2002, 4 middle schools, 3 comprehensive high schools, 2 alternative high schools, and an adult school. The enrollment in 2000/2001 was approximately 21,000 students in grades K-12.
