[edit] Campus

The original 1955 campus is noted for the model it set for other area schools. In particular the use of natural lighting, landscaping, and a combination of exterior and interior passages. In 2000, SMUHSD residents approved Measure D [3] which directly funded the repair and modernization of schools including Hillsdale.
