Our District

Seligman Unified School District has been preparing students for life success since 1914. At Seligman, we believe schools are an integral part of the community and should be for children. It is our job to provide a safe place for our children to grow academically and socially, nurturing their dreams, and encouraging them to reach their full potential. We believe that teaching children how to learn is more important than dictating to them what they should know.

To learn more about what each of our schools can offer your family, please visit our elementary and high school pages. We're excited to share our accomplishments with you and invite you to contact us with your feedback and support.

Belief Statement

We believe:

  • Parents, teachers, administrators, staff, the governing board, and the community share the responsibility for the support of the school mission statement.

  • A safe and physically-comfortable environment promotes student learning.

  • Students learn in different ways.

  • Developing appropriate learning activities enhances learning at all levels.

  • Instructional practices should incorporate emotional, social, and physical skills.

  • Students learn to make appropriate decisions given a supportive learning environment.

  • Student performance increases with challenging expectations.
