The Athenian School

Danville, California | Grades 6-12 , Co-ed | Founded in 1965

Description

The Athenian School is located at the base of Mt. Diablo in Danville, California. The beautiful 75-acre campus is filled with oak-trees and rolling hills. Students have the convenience of a big city being nearby as campus is only 32 miles East of San Francisco. Campus provides a close-knit community, but is still spacious enough to explore.

To be an Athenian means to be a well-rounded student. Students are encouraged to get out of their comfort zones inside and outside of the classroom. The Athenian offers a rigorous course load that helps graduates find success at the nation’s top colleges. Faculty work hard to know each student well, and work with them to discover their passions.
