Get Involved. Stay Connected.
Visalia Unified School District (VUSD) is thrilled to introduce Advanced Learning—an exciting new way to support students who are ready for more!
When students have already mastered grade-level material, we want to keep their love of learning alive by offering meaningful enrichment and extension opportunities. Enrichment gives students hands-on access to subjects like music, art, drama, technology, and more—areas that spark creativity and passion. Extension takes learning to the next level, offering advanced content, personalized challenges, and deeper exploration beyond the standard curriculum.
Whether your child is curious, creative, or craving a challenge, Advanced Learning opens doors to help them thrive and shine!
