At Marin Horizon I am heard.
Inspiring students to become passionate learners,
beacons of kindness, and advocates for positive change.
Welcome from Head of School
Since its founding in 1977, Marin Horizon has been providing a challenging and robust academic program combined with character-enhancing life skills. Marin Horizon is a place of creative, active learning built around our commitment to developing each student’s confident voice.
Meet the Faculty
Meaningful student-teacher relationships are a primary reason families choose Marin Horizon. Our students don't get lost in the shuffle.
Our teachers strive to know their students and to create a deep sense of belonging in their classrooms. With this foundation, our students have the confidence to take intellectual risks and challenge themselves.
Challenging Students at Their Academic Frontier
Our expectations are high, so our students are challenged academically from a young age.
Our project-based curriculum means that students are grappling with complex, multi-layered questions, exercising their creativity, and pursuing their individual curiosities and passions. Our intentionally designed scope and sequence, along with our core curriculum, results in deep learning and cognitive engagement.

A Deeply Engaged Community
Our community of parents are a frequent presence on campus, immersing themselves in primary classroom readings, appreciating student projects, and participating in events that unify us all. This community spirit is reflected in our students, who form friendships spanning different grades, and feel a sense of belonging that's increasingly elusive in modern times. The bond between the school and its families facilitates the holistic development of every student.
