Welcome to the Black Oak Mine Unified School District

All students will be healthy, responsible, productive citizens, skilled workers, lifelong learners, and contributors to their local and world communities.

We are pleased to provide information about and resources to the parents and communities we serve, and to those considering moving to the Georgetown Divide.
