The Power of Small
Our founders envisioned a small, college-prep community to provide each student education not available at larger institutions. With a maximum of 100 students, we provide consistent mentorship for every student and facilitate engaging programming to enrich students’ educational interests. Given our small size, we encourage variety and accommodate all students through creative scheduling.

Besant Hill School Reviews
We love visiting on family weekends, and can see first hand how our daughter is learning in her environment. The school seems to support inquiry and service, encouraging kids to speak their mind and make decisions for themselves. The stunning location, access to Southern California, and delicious food don't hurt either.
Signed, a very grateful parent
The course offerings are progressive and there is a strong sense of community amongst the students. The campus is secure with an attentive loving staff.
Our daughter has been partial to the performing arts since a young child and has enjoyed the many opportunities that Besant Hill provides for her to express her passions.
The educator to student ratio is small and personal which is very important as she continues to challenge herself with AP courses, English and mathematics.
We feel confident that making the decision to educate our daughter at Besant Hill School has been the right choice as our daughter expresses gratitude so often on what an honor it is to be a student here.
Parent, class of 2025
