California State University, Dominguez Hills, was founded in 1960; however, the campus sits on land with a long and rich history. The university's 346 acres were once a section of the first private land grant in Southern California—the Rancho San Pedro. Juan José Dominguez (1736-1809), a Spanish soldier, received the original grant of 75,000 acres in 1784 from King Carlos III of Spain. While much of the acreage has been sold and developed, portions remain in possession of Dominguez descendants. The site chosen for the university was known as the Dominguez Hills, named after the family. CSU Dominguez Hills offers a wide selection of great degrees that reflect today's in-demand fields.

California State University, Dominguez Hills, commits to connect with the communities we serve and to build partnerships in the surrounding South Bay region of Southern California. Being a valued member of the community is one of the university's highest priorities. We work to develop and enhance CSU Dominguez Hills' relations with a wide range of constituent groups – residents, businesses, civic organizations, governmental agencies, and local legislators – promoting mutual understanding, coordinating the campus's response to local public policy issues, and helping members of the community access the university's many resources. To successfully meet our mission and effectively serve our students and our community, CSU Dominguez Hills must find additional mechanisms to provide the high-quality physical learning environment necessary to educate our students and ensure CSUDH graduates have the knowledge and skills necessary to compete and succeed in their chosen fields. Academic buildings are critical to providing the foundational programs identified in the 1963 statewide master plan for higher education, including the sciences, business administration, education, and liberal arts. However, at CSU Dominguez Hills, such buildings are more than 40 years old. Since 2009, CSU Dominguez Hills has received no new state-funded buildings. Also, none of the temporary buildings from the 1960s have been replaced, and over the last 25 years, only two new state-funded buildings, Welch Hall and the Library addition, have been added to the campus. Foundational programs essential to high-quality academic instruction primarily reside in buildings constructed between 1963 and 1977 or in temporary buildings purchased by the campus. In order to best position the university to leverage our unique land assets and generate additional revenue that can assist in financing and renovating academic buildings and support other academic instructional needs, the university recently partnered with AEG (operator of sports and entertainment venues around the world, including the StubHub Center on land leased from the university) and the City of Carson to engage the Urban Land Institute (ULI). ULI is comprised of accomplished developers, real estate specialists, economic development consultants, architects, academics, and other land-use professionals to assess and provide expert, independent, timely, and unbiased input on university land development plans and opportunities via an approach referred to as a Technical Advisory Panel (TAP).

Blue Hills College is a caring school community that spiritually and academically equips, challenges, and inspires students to make a difference. Our rural campus, situated on the edge of the Alstonville Plateau on the Lismore district, offers increased opportunities by providing relevant learning environments for students from Pre-Kindy to Year 12. Blue Hills College (BHC) adopts a holistic approach to education which encompasses the development of the spiritual, intellectual, social, physical, and aesthetic dimensions of each student. Our general objectives are designed to guide students towards developing their full potential, and in doing so, supporting them to achieve success in reaching their personal goals. The school started as a small school in a hall that had been purchased from Alstonville, demolished, and re-erected behind the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Brewster Street, Lismore. Blue Hills College opened as Lismore Seventh-day Adventist School at the beginning of the 1950 school year. The first teacher was Mrs. Diedre Holmes who worked as a sole-charge teacher for the multi-level classroom. In 1960 the school was moved to Uralba Street, and a second room was added in 1972. The school was re-named "Seventh-day Adventist Union School" in the 1970s when the churches at Ballina, Casino, and Kyogle joined with Lismore in administering the school. In 1978 a high school was added, and in March of that year, the school moved to its present site at Blue Hills Avenue, Goonellabah. Over the ensuing years, an additional year level was added to the high school until the Higher School Certificate credential was achieved. The school was renamed "Blue Hills Adventist School" in 1987, and "Blue Hills College" in 1997. At Bluehills College we have a great Pre-Kindy program. Research suggests that the first five years are especially significant in a child’s overall development. Blue Hills College acknowledges this and recognizes that learning starts well before the first day of school. Our Pre-Kindy classes provide a curriculum-based program for four-year-olds. Our program is based on the NSW Board of Studies syllabus. Children are exposed to the Early Stage One outcomes that they will be expected to master in Kindergarten through play-based, hands-on and integrated activities. Our program is strongly influenced by the new national Early Years Learning Framework - 'Belonging, Being & Becoming'. The program includes a strong literacy and numeracy focus, Japanese lessons, and play-based learning experiences. The course has been specifically designed to meet the cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development of children in a fun and engaging way. Rich learning experiences and meaningful relationships lay the foundation for each child’s development. The program is delivered by qualified and experienced teachers and staff. The interactive and responsive structure of BHC’s Pre-Kindy program prepares children for school and life-long learning. Primary school is where the journey begins to take shape - the start of thirteen years of formalized education. Because learning begins the day a child is born, by the time they arrive at school they already have a wealth of knowledge and understandings in place. Our Primary education program at Blue Hills College (BHC) builds on this knowledge base and assists students to establish connections between what they know and experience and what they will discover in the classroom. The secondary school program is designed to enhance the academic, emotional, spiritual, social, and physical development of each child and to cultivate balanced students with integrity, who are committed to serving their community. Our secondary school is registered with the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) to cater to students from Years 7-12. Blue Hills College adopts a holistic approach to education which encompasses the development of the spiritual, intellectual, social, physical, and aesthetic dimensions of each student. Our general objectives are designed to guide students towards developing their full potential, and in doing so, supporting them to achieve success in reaching their personal goals. View full school

The Seven Hills School has roots reaching back to 1906, with the College Preparatory School's founding. In 1974, the College Preparatory School merger and the Hillsdale-Lotspeich School brought these learning institutions together to form the modern incarnation of The Seven Hills School. At its core, our culture at Seven Hills celebrates human complexity. We love that we are all different. In our diverse, inclusive community, we learn to approach each other with open minds and compassionate hearts. We learn that each of us has unique potential and that the variations of that potential make each person's story worth exploring. Through all the laughs and smiles, you see our students' personal stories unfolding right before your eyes in excitement and curiosity. Our Lower School students are becoming more self-confident by engaging in spirited classroom discussions. Our Middle School students are becoming more aware of the world around them and more eager to play a role in our school and their communities. Our Upper School students are preparing for wherever their story takes them next, passionate about emerging interests, and prepared to write their next chapter. All of our students are discovering their potential, their unique and unabridged stories. In the end, we want our students to know who they are and whom they want to become. We believe that the best way to do this is to understand them as individuals so that we can help guide them down their distinct paths in life. Each student has unique gifts and dreams.

South Hills Academy is a private school in West Covina, California, that emphasizes excellence in the present and readiness for the future in students from preschool through Grade 12. At SHA, staff and students work together to help students achieve five key outcomes that will be important as they venture into adulthood. In all our work, recreation, and interaction with one another, we - the staff, parents, and students - strive to exhibit character that is consistent with Christ's teachings. This identity is at the heart of our day-to-day lives here at South Hills Academy. It is the basis of our family atmosphere. It is the foundation of our approach to helping students develop into healthy, successful adults by graduating from high school. Another fundamental aspect of successful people and our daily operations at South Hills Academy is effective communication. Teachers work to continually provide students with opportunities, models, and feedback to develop outstanding communication skills. Students learn to read, write, listen, and speak effectively in various situations by participating in stimulating projects and activities organized by the teacher, student-run activities, and informal interactions with fellow students and teachers. We believe that strong social engagement is vital for the prosperity of individuals and society. So we guide our students to develop the habits and skills of beneficial social engagement, allowing them to live more fulfilling lives as adults and contribute to the spread of Christian values and the continued improvement of our society. Through lessons in the classroom, modeling by our staff members, participation in field trips and projects, and experience working and playing with their schoolmates, and our students will learn to respect the rights and value of others, to understand and appreciate diversity, to build positive relationships, and to assume responsibility for making beneficial contributions to their communities. Critical thinking is a skill that is even more necessary in the age of information and technology. With all of the information that constantly bombards us, we need to know how to find the truth and separate it from untruth. SHA equips students with a strong foundation of truthful knowledge and skills to gather, process, analyze, synthesize, and evaluate information using various strategies. By the time students graduate from high school, SHA wants students to have the confidence and ability to successfully navigate the sea of information to make sagacious decisions, solve problems, resolve conflicts, avoid falling prey to deception and falsehood, and continue to discover the truth. Recognizing that our world is becoming smaller and more globalized, SHA nurtures students into global citizens. These adults have a solid understanding and appreciation of the world's current situations and peoples and capable of interacting with people of different cultures beneficially collaborative and synergistic manner. Being global citizens also means upholding our responsibility to help take care of our world and to promote peace, mutual respect, and goodwill in all our actions and interactions. South Hills Academy and its staff are committed to creating an effective learning environment that encourages our students to reach their potential. We strive to open doors for every student while empowering them to grow and continue to discover opportunities for themselves as they leave our programs. By achieving the five outcomes described above, students will develop into highly successful and fulfilled individuals. View full school
