The Gridley Unified School District, based in Gridley, California in the Central Valley, operates five schools and serves roughly 2,000 students. It runs McKinley Primary (K–1), Woodrow Wilson Elementary (2–5), Sycamore Middle School (6–8), Gridley High School (9–12), and Esperanza High School for Alternative Education, with a focus on a safe, nurturing learning environment and a curriculum that remains relevant to students' futures within a small-town setting. As a K–12 public education district, it serves the local community by delivering instruction and programs aimed at developing capable, civic-minded individuals. A recent development noted in 2017 was the appointment of Darcy Pollak as principal of Wilson Elementary. The district's overarching aim is to support student achievement and growth within the context of Gridley's rural community.
