    In SAUSD, there are many ways that we measure a child’s learning. Teachers use report card grades, classroom work, teacher observations, and end-of-year statewide test results to get a complete picture of students’ learning. For the 2025 spring administration of the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) and the Summative English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC), students will continue to take their assigned tests in-person.

    Passing of Former SAUSD Superintendent Dr. Al Mijares

    It is with deep sadness that we at Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD) share the passing of Dr. Al Mijares, a visionary leader who served as our superintendent for more than 11 years (1994-2006). Dr. Mijares was a champion for education, dedicating his life to fostering academic achievement and student well-being across diverse communities, including Santa Ana. His leadership, compassion, and commitment to students have left an indelible mark on our district and beyond. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones during this difficult time. Dr. Mijares’ enduring legacy of kindness, integrity, and service will continue to inspire the SAUSD community for generations to come.
