Emery Unified School District

Emery Unified School District is a small public school district in Emeryville, California, United States, in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Campuses

The district currently operates two schools, Anna Yates Elementary school and Emery Secondary School. Previously the schools had separate campuses, but they are now closed. The schools moved to a shared campus in August 2016 at the newly constructed state-of-the-art facility called Emeryville Center for Community Life. Also sharing the ECCL site are the Emery Unified School District Office, a community health center, and city of Emeryville community and recreation spaces.

As of 2017 the East Bay campus of the German International School of Silicon Valley occupies the ex-Anna Yates School. This campus will close after spring 2018 and reorganize into a separate school,[1] called the East Bay German International School.[2]

Programs

The Oakland Raiders annually visit a fourth grade class to encourage the students to work smarter, not harder.
