Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District


Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District is a school district headquartered in Santa Monica, California, United States. The district serves the cities of Santa Monica and Malibu. It has ten elementary schools, two middle schools, three high schools, an adult high school, and an alternative school.

In 2009 Malibu High School underwent a Polychlorinated biphenyls clean up. In 2011 the construction project on the Malibu Middle and High Schools and Juan Cabrillo Elementary School found soils contaminated with PCB and organochlorine pesticides. The levels present represented “an unacceptable health risk.” In 2014 the continued contamination was linked to caulk. In March 2015 parents and teachers filed a lawsuit to remove all contaminated caulk from the premises.

Until the 1980s, students from Malibu were required to bus a long distance into Santa Monica for grades 10-12, but the former junior high school there has since become Malibu High School..

in 2009 and 2010, the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District did a polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) cleanup of Malibu High School overseen by the California Department of Toxic Substance Control. During a 2011 construction project on the Malibu Middle and High Schools and Juan Cabrillo Elementary School, contractors discovered soils were contaminated with PCBs and organochlorine pesticides like chlordane and DDT and presented “an unacceptable health risk”.
