he San Marino Schools Foundation (SMSF) was founded in 1980 as a direct response to significant changes in how public education is funded in California.

Historically, public school districts were funded from local property taxes. This meant that public school districts in high property-value communities like San Marino had a larger tax base to support its schools than communities with lower property values.  The resulting disparity in public education funding was the basis for a lawsuit, Serrano v. Priest (affirmed in 1977), in which the California Supreme Court ruled that the system of funding schools from local property taxes was a violation of California’s equal protection clause due to the inherent inequities caused by using property tax dollars as the primary source of funding for public schools.
