In doing so, we offer complete programs in English Language Development, Advanced Placement and Honors, Vocational education courses, and ROP courses. The mission statement of Bellflower High School states: "The adult leadership of Bellflower Middle/High School will provide an environment for students that is safe, orderly, and conducive to purposefully engaged learning. Emphasis will be placed upon individual student needs to ensure participation in a balanced educational program. A strong instructional program will be evident through a competent staff that utilizes a variety of instructional strategies with emphasis on three kinds of learning: skills, knowledge, and values. Adult role models will demonstrate high, realistic expectations for all aspects of student learning. Students will demonstrate a positive self-concept through appropriate attitude, proper self direction, and responsible citizenship in a democratic society."

The Bellflower Unified School District is proud of the many existing partnerships between the schools and community organizations. In addition, parents at Bellflower Middle/High School are encouraged to be actively involved in the school program as volunteers or members of district and school committees, booster clubs, PTSA and the Bellflower Middle/High School Site Council. The School Site Council provides a significant opportunity for participation in decision-making regarding school policy, program, and expenditure of funds at the site level.
