Overview « Whole Child Development

Marin Horizon School makes a difference in children's lives so they can make a difference in their world. We accomplish this by providing an engaging and challenging academic curriculum and other programs that cultivate the intellectual, social and emotional growth of each student. Our program is built on six interconnected cornerstones that influence daily classroom activities and help us live up to our mission:

Love of learning through wonder, discovery, experiences and active involvement.

Academic excellence through an integrated curriculum creatively taught by a dedicated, distinguished faculty devoted to close, inspired relationships with students.

Values-based learning through real experiences that develop social conscience, self-reliance, collaboration, multicultural respect and competence, and community and global responsibility.

Dedication to the environment by exploring the interconnectedness of all life on earth and learning ways to protect, respect and live in harmony with the environment.

Sense of community through the support, commitment and dedication of parents, teachers, students and neighbors all working together.

Respect for diversity through awareness and responsibility to each other within a diverse community and within the world community.
