Welcome to Pacific Hills School

We pride ourselves on the fact that our modest campus and unpretentious social environment are the setting for an extraordinary academic experience, built around world-class academics, personal focus, and a family-like atmosphere.

How do we do it?

  • an incredible, truly diverse group of students and families
  • a faculty that cares, that pays attention to every individual, and knows how to teach at the highest levels
  • very small classes, with an average of 11 students each
  • strong leadership and administrative support
  • a focus on community values
  • a spirit of fun

With outstanding music and arts programs, a faculty fellows program bringing Ivy League professors to our campus, and the personal attention that makes an ambitious academic program work for a truly diverse student body, Pacific Hills is an extraordinary place - and we'd love for you to come see it for yourself.

INTEGRATED IPAD PROGRAM

All of our eighth- and ninth-grade students are now equipped with iPads, and using them for in-school and at-home learning, breaking down the barriers between school and the unlimited learning resources online. We'll be evaluating and fine-tuning this exciting technology experiment all year, and mapping out new ways to explore the world from our desktops and classrooms.

NEW HUMANITIES OFFERING

Pacific Hills School has begun a new partnership with the Real Medicine Foundation, a Los Angeles-based relief organization providing humanitarian support to people living in disaster and poverty stricken areas, focusing on the person as a whole by providing medical/physical, emotional, economic, and social support. With active programs in 13 countries including Kenya, Haiti, India, Armenia and the US, the Real Medicine Foundation is led by Martina Fuchs, MD, PhD, and continues to expand its reach.

In partnership with the Real Medicine Foundation, Pacific Hills School has launched a new course combining 7th-grade Geography with 8th-grade English, focused on understanding and documenting the experiences of people in the communities around the world served by the foundation. Service opportunities at the foundation's sites in Los Angeles, and in support of the foundation's work across the globe, will be integrated into the school's community service program, and Real Medicine Foundation staff will be making frequent visits to Pacific Hills to share real-world experiences with students.
