Heart with text: Supporting our LGBTQIA+ Community
Supporting our LGBTQIA+ Community

We want to be clear in San Mateo Union High School District’s unwavering support of our LGBTQIA+ community as concerns and fears continue to surface from our community in the wake of recent presidential executive orders.

This District has protected, and will continue to protect the legal rights of our community. We remain steadfast in our dedication to ensuring the well-being of every student in our schools. SMUHSD’s values and policies remain consistent with our past practices.

Please read the February 23 message from Superintendent Booker.  

Supporting our Immigrant Students

Members of our immigrant community are experiencing heightened feelings of distress and concern over federal immigration policy.

All children in the United States, regardless of immigration or citizenship status, have a right to a free and appropriate public education. Our schools have an obligation to preserve access to education for students of all backgrounds including immigrant students. 

Our schools will not voluntarily grant access to immigration enforcement officers without a judicial warrant or court order. We are prohibited from requesting social security numbers or inquiring about the citizenship or immigration status of students or their parents/guardians.

Please read the February 7 message from Superintendent Booker.
