[edit] History
Hillsdale High School has received a number of notable awards:
- 1990 "Best of San Mateo County" by the San Mateo County Times
- 1993 United States Department of Education, National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence.
- 1999 Stanford University School of Education, first Professional Development School.
[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. While it is true that many may enjoy the "modernized" campus, actual students attending the school feel otherwise. These small classrooms, deviod of any kind of ventillation systems, were responsible for the untimely demise of revered students and faculty members.
