School Profile:
Olga L. Reed School is a rural, TK-8 school with 205 students as of this writing. The school is a centerpiece of the small community of Los Alamos.  Most parents work on the farms, ranches, and vineyards of Los Alamos, the nearby Santa Ynez Valley, and the Santa Maria Valley. The school plays a prominent role in community events such as the annual

Old Days Celebration in late September and community initiatives such as the establishment of a community library on campus.  The Los Alamos Community Library occupies a corner of the school site and is open to school families and the community four weekday afternoons and all day on Saturday.

From its inception until July 2011, Olga Reed was the lone school in the Los Alamos School District. In July 2011, the school and district were assimilated into the larger Orcutt Union School District. The 2019-2020 school year is Olga Reed’s ninth with Orcutt. Due to the need to tighten expenditures districtwide, Olga Reed (like several other district schools) raised class sizes in the upper grades this school year and is staffed with one fewer classroom teaching position.

For Olga Reed, this school year marks the sixth year of sharing a campus with the Orcutt Academy’s TK-8 program. OA has 136 students in grades TK-8, and it occupies six rooms on the Helena Street side of the Los Alamos campus. OA has a separate program and a separate daily schedule, but it shares a lunchtime and programs such as physical education and classroom music with Olga Reed. In addition, the two schools’ separate Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) units collaborate on school events such as a Harvest Festival in October, a Family Movie Night, and a Staff Appreciation Luncheon. This year, in association with the districtwide need to reduce expenses, Olga Reed and OAK-8 are sharing an office, with an office manager and an office assistant serving both schools.

Mission Statement:

To provide every student a high-quality learning environment and the tools needed to be a lifelong learner and a responsible citizen.

in special education, 8.7% qualifying for English Language Learner support, and 33.6% qualifying for free or reduced price lunch.

The culture of Orcutt Junior High School reflects a commitment that all students can learn and encourages all students to be academically successful.  Our classes are heterogeneously grouped and raising the level of student achievement defines our most important effort. In each academic department, students know what the state mandated content standards are because they are posted in the classroom, listed in their textbooks or kept in their notebooks. Under- performing students are identified early in the school year and interventions like reading, or math support classes are established.  Students are also involved in an Extended Learning Opportunity intervention block that is designed to provide the extra help in ELA and math needed to guarantee academic success in high school and college. In other academic areas, our Local Control and Accountability (LCFF) funds have been used extensively to provide resource materials and conference opportunities for teachers to meet the needs of their students.

Mission Statement:

The vision and mission of Orcutt Junior High School is to ensure the educational success of all students by maintaining high expectations, a safe learning environment, a commitment to excellence, and comprehensive programs which empower children to reach their fullest potential as responsible and productive citizens in a continuously changing world.
