Admissions

Dear Prospective Mount Madonna School Family,

We are pleased to share with you our commitment to providing a unique, safe and stimulating learning environment for students of all ages. At MMS, children are supported in discovering and expressing who they are, and parents can trust that their child will be truly known and cared for in an inspiring educational program.

We hope you will plan a visit to MMS soon. Our campus, on 355 acres of redwood forest, meadows and lakes, is located on the summit between Gilroy (south of San Jose) and Watsonville (south of Santa Cruz). This peaceful, natural environment is both invigorating and relaxing. Students, ages 3 through 18, enjoy hiking and observing nature while pursuing their educational studies on campus.

MMS believes in a strong partnership between parents, students and teachers. Our families appreciate the connection between home and school as we support and encourage each other while nourishing our students' growth and success.

Our admission directors, Mary Supriya McDonald, Dr. Nicole Tervalon, and Lara Kilpatrick, are available to assist you with any questions you may have. Please contact our Admissions Office by phone at 408-846-4032 or email at admissions(AT)mountmadonna.org.

Mount Madonna School students appreciate learning in and out of the classroom. They value their close relationships with faculty and enjoy sharing their wide range of talents and interests with others. They form strong bonds of friendship as they travel from the elementary years through high school together. The development of their character, gifts, talents and intellectual interests builds a deep reservoir of confidence they carry with them wherever they go.

We invite you to visit us at Mount Madonna School and see our program in action.
