Stevenson School

Stevenson School is a highly selective, coeducational, private boarding and day school serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Located on California's stunning Monterey Peninsula, the school operates two campuses: the Carmel Campus for students in Pre-K through 8th grade, and the Pebble Beach Campus for students in grades 9-12. Founded in 1952, Stevenson has built a reputation for academic excellence while maintaining a steadfast commitment to fostering joyful learning and student achievement.

The school's mission centers on three foundational aims: preparing students for success in school and life beyond, nurturing a passion for learning and achievement, and helping students shape joyful lives. Stevenson's distinctive approach recognizes that joyful learning and academic achievement are not mutually exclusive. Learning becomes far more powerful and enduring when driven by curiosity, wonder, and the freedom to explore big ideas alongside expert guides and motivated peers. The school motto, 'Suaviter in modo, fortiter in re' (Gentle in manner, resolute in deed), reflects the institution's emphasis on humility and perseverance throughout every aspect of the educational experience.
