Mill Valley Middle School

My daughter had the privilege to attend Marin Horizon School for 8th grade and her experience exceeded our expectations on every level. My only regret is not moving to MHS earlier. What most impressed me was how close the teachers, staff and administrators got to know her, and the dedicated coaching she received in every single class. This struck me reading the narrative from each teacher in the first report cards. It was clear they knew my daughter deeply and had worked closely with her to develop her strengths and push her in the areas she needed to grow. The school community was incredibly warm and welcoming, she had many new friends within days of joining the school and felt as if she had been there for years. This was clearly intentional, MHS focuses on fostering a sense of belonging, bonding with teachers, character building and strong academics. I highly recommend MHS and can see why they have been voted 'Best Private School in Marin' for many years. It is indeed the best!

We have had children at Marin Primary and Middle School for over 5 years and we could not be more grateful to be a part of this community. The teachers are truly invested in our children's education and emotional wellbeing. The school does a great job and amplifying the subjects that our kids excel in and support those that are more challenging. Being a parent here feels like a real partnership in how to best support each kid, and when you email administration they get back to you with a collaborative approach. Thank you Marin Primary!
