Our Private School
Founded in 1948 (in Daly City and close to San Francisco), Hilldale School has become the best Bay Area private school to participate in an accelerated learning environment. From Kindergarten through Eighth Grade, students receive a balanced and challenging curriculum to bring out the best in every student. By combining highly qualified teachers, small class sizes, academic excellence, affordable tuition, and a superior learning environment, this private elementary school is the private school of choice in and around Daly City.
Never Stop Learning!
Hilldale Private School is best known for its strong academic curriculum and personal attention to the students. The rich curriculum and small class sizes allow us to reach our goal of every child reaching their potential. The teacher’s commitment, individual attention and guidance are key to their success. The results are obvious to any High School admissions officer in the Bay Area, and our students almost always attend their first high school choice. We believe that a private school education should provide each child with all of the resources they need for a complete education, as well as the motivation to succeed. Come get to know us by visiting our school campus, and see for yourself!

HILLDALE
Our Mission & Philosophy
Our mission is to inspire and challenge each child to become a responsible, positive, self-disciplined individual who is a life-long learner and leader and to nurture, inspire, and challenge the unique academic, personal, and social growth of each child while instilling the values of respect, responsibility, self-discipline, and service to our community.
We seek to promote the enduring habits of intellectual curiosity, appreciation for the arts, physical fitness, international knowledge and understanding, environmental stewardship, and respect for self and others.
Habits of inquiry, independent thinking, and imagination are fostered through a rich and rigorous academic program with high expectations that challenges students to maximize their abilities.
The goal is for students to leave Hilldale strong in character, well prepared for further education, determined to fully develop their own gifts, and ready to share those gifts generously with the wider community.
A Word
From Our Principal
” Our goal is to provide the right amount of acceleration and academic stimulation for above average, bright, and gifted children. We aim to meet the needs of our learners at the appropriate intellectual level and the appropriate social-emotional level, which often can be developing at asynchronistic levels in our bright and gifted students.”
– Sasha Clayton
