The Seven Hills School, founded in 1962, is an independent, not-for-profit, day school educating 400 students in preschool through 8th grade.

Accredited by the California Association of Independent Schools (CAIS) and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), Seven Hills is also an active member of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) and other independent school associations. Seven Hills enjoys a long standing partnership with educational institutions nationwide. 

At Seven Hills our mission is, “to develop the intellect, engage the spirit and foster respect for and responsibility to our world.”

We are a community of parents, educators and students who are committed to lifelong learning. We enjoy an environment in which a student’s curiosity is inspired, engaged, and rewarded. And we support educators who value professional development, lead each other and their peers to best practices, and accomplish all of this in a spirit of collegiality.

Our campus, nine acres of former ranchland set back behind Heather Farm Park, is a student-centered environment that provides a myriad of experiences for our children. Step out of our 21st century classrooms and along a babbling brook which meanders through campus. Stop by our lunch tables and watch children play on our huge outdoor chessboard. On any given day, you might see Shakespeare performed or Beethoven rehearsed; a rocket launched or a volleyball serve perfected. Our spacious library has room for quiet, introspective readers and a stage for gregarious story tellers.
