 Welcome to the Ross School District Website!
Ross School is a unique K-8 single school district dedicated to excellence and “Success for All.” The school is nestled at the foot of Mount Tamalpais in the town of Ross, in Marin County. The school serves the students of Ross and includes sections of Kentfield and San Anselmo, which border the town boundaries. We take pride in the fact that the school has been educating our children for 100 years and is the heart of the town. As a K-8 single school district with a total enrollment of almost 400 students, Ross School culture is one that values the whole child. The connection to the school results from a variety of traditions and an intense focus on individual learning.
Our mission is to build a solid educational foundation for all students while inspiring, guiding and challenging them to learn and reach out to the world with compassion, integrity and courage. Our goal is to maintain the excellence of Ross School while continuously striving to improve in order to prepare our students for success in our diverse and rapidly changing world.
The Ross School Five-YearStrategic Plan is committed to:
• Assure a consistently excellent, balanced and well-articulated program to develop,
nurture, and challenge each child;
• Provide students with the skills and tools for learning in the 21st century;
• Provide students with experiences that develop an understanding and respect for the
diversity of the world and the importance of contributing to others;
• Foster a work environment that supports best teaching and a respectful partnership
between parents and school staff;
• Ensure an up-to-date, safe and secure facility for school and community that supports our educational program and is flexible for changing needs; and
• Ensure financial stability and efficient and effective use of resources.
