Welcome to SCUC - where every opportunity is world-class, and you don't just fit in, you truly belong!
Discover the vibrant heart of education in the Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District (SCUC ISD), where we offer a small town feel with world class opportunities and proudly proclaim that "You Belong Here!" These deeply-rooted beliefs and statements embody our commitment to fostering a sense of community while offering exceptional educational opportunities.
Nestled on the northeast side of San Antonio, SCUC ISD spans a 73-square mile area across Bexar and Guadalupe counties. Steeped in tradition yet forward-thinking, our district has maintained its small-town atmosphere while embracing growth and innovation.
With a student body of nearly 15,000 learners, SCUC ISD is comprised of eight elementary schools, three intermediate schools for fifth- and sixth-graders, two junior high schools, two traditional high schools, a non-traditional high school, and a disciplinary alternative education campus. Despite our size, our dedication to fostering a sense of belonging for every student, parent, and staff member remains unwavering.
Our journey began in the early 1900s as the Schertz School District, eventually merging with Cibolo in the mid-1930s to become the foundation of SCUC ISD. In 1961, we proudly attained the status of an "Independent School District," later incorporating Universal City into our name in 1967.
At SCUC ISD, our vision and mission are clear: to empower every student with the skills, confidence, and passion to thrive in their individual pursuits. Through quality, student-centered learning experiences, we prepare our students not just for success, but for significance in a rapidly changing world.
Join us as we rally together to nurture the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and innovators. Together, we build a future where every student leaves SCUC ISD ready to embrace their unique journey with confidence and purpose.
