Become Frontline Friendly Certified

Frontline Friendly certification is the key to highlighting and building pride in your workplace. In today’s job market, frontline employees (e.g., restaurant, hospitality, warehouse, manufacturing and retail workers) are looking for companies that offer more than just pay. Benefits, perks, and most of all an exceptional work environment make the difference.


Learn more about how to become Frontline Friendly certified here.

Career Super Highway Program at VUSD Relaunches

Often times students find themselves questioning what they're good at, how they can make a difference, and if a 4-year university is the correct path for them.


For this reason the Vista Unified School District has created a program to help students explore other options. Learn more about this program on the Spring issue of Vista Magazine here.
