About Ray Unified School District #3
Ray Unified keeps its small K–12 system in two principal settings. Ray Elementary carries the early grades, and current district communications place grades six through twelve at Ray Junior/Senior High. The major campus transition occurs in sixth grade, after which middle- and high-school students share one secondary organization through graduation. The combined 6–12 campus lets a small district share teachers, electives, athletics, facilities, and career preparation across the adolescent years. Students experience a clear move from elementary to secondary school under the same governing district. The exact elementary preschool configuration can vary by program, but the current grade-six entry to Junior/Senior High is the stable structural point.
