New Village School

Curriculum

The New Village School, a Bay Area independent school located in Sausalito, is redefining education for children from preschool through 8th grade. We prioritize small class sizes (10-20 students), meaningful and rigorous academics, screen-free learning through 6th grade, social/emotional intelligence, outdoor education on our farm and the sea, global travel, and awareness. Our grads leave with a strong sense of geographical, historical, societal orientation, and personal growth. They are prepared for high school and, more importantly, life. Music, art, nature and culture are strongly valued. Languages offered include Arabic, Russian, Japanese and Spanish.[3] School trips are held every year from 3rd to 8th grade, including a 7th grade Europe trip, a three-week affair in from early to mid April, and an 8th grade vision quest in Peru.

Student life

The school holds a Winter Fair and the Cherry Blossom Festival, among other celebrations.[4]
