The Mission of the Signal Hill School District is to provide an environment which offers the best possible educational opportunities for children.  

In support of this Mission, the District is committed to:

• Academic excellence;
• A safe and supportive learning environment;
• Innovative and quality teaching;
• Education of the whole child for lifelong learning;
• High standards of character and behavior;
• Development of student leadership, self-confidence, and respect for self and others; 
• Parent and community involvement.

Serving students from preschool through grade 8, Signal Hill School District is dedicated to academic excellence in a safe and supportive learning environment. Innovative, quality teaching with a focus on leadership development contributes to students' achievement.

As the hub of the community, the district encourages parent and community involvement in their children's education. Fathers' Club is a group of dedicated fathers who actively participate in the growth and development of their children, the school and the community.

Signal Hill Education Foundation (SHEF) helps facilitate financial support for the district from businesses, individuals and corporations. SHEF provides grants and funding for programs that otherwise would not have been possible. Projects funded by SHEF include purchase of computers, salary for a gifted education program, purchase of a Spanish video program, installation of air conditioning for classrooms, a summer library program, and a community theater project.
