Comments and Other Information

Other Information: Tulelake Basin Joint Unified School District is a small district located on the Siskiyou and Modoc County line just a few miles south of the Oregon border. TBJUSD is comprised of three schools: Tulelake Basin Elementary (K-6th), Tulelake High School (7th-12th), and Tulelake Continuation High School. The area is primarily used for ranching and farming. The economic instability caused by drought and water insecurities, has caused a declining enrollment for years, this year we are starting to see enrollment stabilize a bit. TBJUSD has a high unduplicated student count, especially in the areas of low income and English language learners. We provide many interventions such as SIPPS (Systematic Instruction in Phonemes, Phonics and Sight Words), Read Naturally (a fluency building program), and AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) with our English Learners and Low-Income students in mind, however, due to our small size these actions and services benefit all students. We are served by Modoc County Office of Education for our special education and coordination of our foster youth student services. Staff takes great pride in seeing all the students succeed and reach their potential. The students have a lot of involvement with FFA, 4H, and various other extra curricular activities in the community. The staff works hard to learn and implement new technologies that allow our students to access material in different ways.
