Mission...a statement of system purpose and critical means

The mission of the San Mateo Union High School District is to challenge and motivate each student to achieve full potential as a responsible member of our diverse community, in a safe learning environment that promotes intellectual growth, health, creativity, and respect for self and others.

Beliefs...fundamental convictions and basic values

We believe that:

• Each individual has equal inherent dignity and worth.
• Family is essential to the development of an individual's values.
• Learning develops the aesthetic, emotional, intellectual, practical, and social aspects of the whole person.
• Learning is a unique, personal, and lifelong experience.
• Motivation is essential for reaching one's potential.
• Higher expectations yield higher results.
• Communities have a responsibility to the individual as individuals have a responsibility to the community.
• Diversity enriches the community.
