Student Support Services
Our vision in Vista Unified School District is that every student graduates from Vista Unified as a resilient, agile learner and creative problem solver who navigates the world with confidence and kindness and eagerly embraces local and global challenges.
Our Mission
The Student Support Services Department provides leadership in the programs and services that support the academic, social, behavioral, and emotional development of all students. Our greatest potential for success lies in our cooperative and collaborative efforts with other departments, campuses, parents, students, and community organizations to meet the individual needs of all students.
Our Role
Student Support Services focuses on an integrated delivery of services. We provide support in many areas to enable the provision of specialized services to students as well as direct support to school site programs as needs arise. Our department also provides training and support to district and school site personnel to assist them to be in compliance with legal requirements for student services.
