Schools and Education in Marin County

There are excellent schools to consider when thinking about educating your children in Marin County. The school directory at www.marinschools.org has up-to- date information on Private and Public schools in Marin with links to each school. Marin County children are educated in 19 public school districts with enrollments ranging from 12 students to 7,000 students. Fifteen of the school districts are Elementary (K - 8); two are Unified districts (K - 12); and two are High School districts (Grades 9 - 12). Check out the STAR test score reports for individual schools or by Districts. We also have ten private schools in Marin.

There are Extension classes held in each of the Adult High School District programs in the County. You can learn Italian, Computers, tennis and many other subjects in their day and evening classes. http://www.marinschools.org/

We also have the College of Marin with two campuses: the main campus in Kentfield and a north Marin college, Indian Valley, in Novato. Many students attend College of Marin and then transfer to UC Berkeley and other Universities in their Junior year. The Community College program includes an Emeritus College for adult extended education. There is a full range of offerings from Art, Music, Dance, Languages, and Philosophy. You will certainly find the class you always wanted to explore but did not have time to do this when in University. Check out the Distance Learning programs too on the web site www.marin.cc.ca.us/.

Dominican University in San Rafael is a private institution of higher education with an excellent undergraduate curriculum and outstanding graduate degree programs as well. It has a beautiful campus in San Rafael.

Their web site is located at www.dominican.edu/.

Private and public school information: Having my job as a Marin County Realtor for many years has given me lots of exposure to schools in the public and private sectors as well as having raised children who have attended both public and private schools.  I would be happy to talk with you about my experiences. I had the privilege of working with all the schools in the Ross Valley in the student Arts Festival I chaired for years in San Anselmo and I also served on the Board of Directors for San Dominico private school.
