Thank you for your interest in Los Encinos School! We’re celebrating our 46th year as a K-6 primary school, and I’ve proudly served as the head for nearly half that time. Our commitment to individualized education remains steadfast, fostering a close-knit community that values childhood.
Over the years, our campus, curriculum, and technology have evolved to enhance our student’s learning. Our mission, philosophy, and core values, however, have remained constant. We see each child as an individual, benefitting from our small size and supportive community.
Our program focuses on social justice, emphasizing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. We tailor our curriculum to meet children where they are, offering an expansive perspective to enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
We have set our admissions events schedule for the 2026-2027. Check the Events Registration page for opportunities to visit the campus, and click here to read more about our expansive program. I look forward to personally welcoming you to Los Encinos School and showing you the benefits of thinking BIG and starting SMALL!
