San Mateo Middle College is an alternative education collaboration between the San Mateo Union High School District and College of San Mateo. The program’s primary goal is to provide a supportive and challenging environment, along with the opportunity for academic success and career exploration. SMUHSD recruits a variety of students, with special attention on students who are first-generation college students.
The program includes 200 high school juniors and seniors from the district’s six schools.
As part of the Middle College program, these students take three SMUHSD-approved classes taught by SMUHSD instructors on the CSM campus; they round out their schedules with CSM courses. Students can earn both high school credits and college units. The Middle College program also includes comprehensive academic and career advising, social-emotional curriculum and support, and access to all of CSM’s support services.
