Educational Services

Coalinga-Huron Unified School District’s Educational Services department is dedicated to supporting high-quality teaching and learning through the development, implementation, and evaluation of the District’s instructional programs. Our work encompasses curriculum and instructional support, assessment and accountability, professional development, School-Based Mental Health, and a wide range of programs and initiatives designed to support students, educators, families, and the broader school community.

Educational Services provides leadership, collaboration, and support to schools and departments as we work to ensure that learning is engaging, effective, and equitable for every student. Guided by the District’s Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP), our team works alongside educators and school leaders to implement evidence-based practices, strengthen instruction, address diverse student needs, and use data to inform decisions and improve outcomes.

At the heart of Educational Services is a commitment to literacy, student achievement, and the success of the whole learner. We believe that strong relationships and collaborative partnerships among students, families, staff, and community partners create the foundation for meaningful learning and lasting success. By empowering educators with the tools, resources, and professional learning they need to inspire and challenge students, we help create learning environments where every student can grow, thrive, and reach their full potential.

Through collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to continuous improvement, Educational Services works to ensure that every learner is prepared to succeed both inside and outside the classroom.

Each request will be reviewed by the District to determine the appropriate response based on the nature of the request and the instructional context. Submitting this form does not automatically result in a student being excused from the identified content, and alternative arrangements will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
