Sierra-Plumas Joint Unified School District & Sierra County Office of Education Home

We envision schools where all children succeed, where all children feel safe, and where their curiosity is cultivated. We will provide an educational environment that encourages productive, responsible citizens.
Welcome to Sierra-Plumas Joint Unified School District and Sierra County Office of Education! We believe that parent participation is key to student success; our new website is designed to provide parents with all the information they need to be active participants in their student’s education. You will find that the site works just as well on mobile devices as it does on a desktop so you can find information on the go.
