The Association serves and strengthens its schools by setting standards of academic quality and ethical conduct, by providing for the professional growth of faculty, administrators, and trustees, and by promoting ra- cial, ethnic, and socio-economic diversity. Member schools vary widely, ranging in size from 32 to 1819 students; providing cam- puses that are urban, suburban or rural; enrolling student bod- ies that are coeducational or single sex; and offering boarding and day facilities. The majority of schools are secular, but many are religiously affiliated. About Independent Schools Independent schools are pre-collegiate, non-profit institutions that are independently governed by Boards of Trustees and supported by tuition revenue, charitable contributions, and endowment income, rather than by taxes or major funding from religious organizations. Through the accreditation process, schools hold themselves publicly accountable to all who seek assurance that they meet high standards of educational quality, operational stability, and staff competence. Independent schools are caring communities that are unique- ly capable of providing students with individualized attention. Schools are dedicated to developing responsible, independent, and service-oriented students, encouraging a lifetime commit- ment to community involvement and a sense of social respon- sibility and global citizenship. All schools attempt to foster in- clusive communities and admit students without regard to race, color, sexual orientation, and national or ethic origin to all the rights and privileges, programs, and activities available to stu- dents. 5 Membership Requirements To be eligible for provisional membership, schools must be in at least their third year of operation, be incorporated not-for- profit, and meet the standards outlined in key documents of the Association, including the Fundamental Membership Require- ments, the Code of Ethics, and the accreditation manual. Applying for Admission Generally, the best time for families to apply to schools for the admission of their children is in the fall of the year preceding enrollment, but a number of schools accept and consider appli- cations throughout the year. To begin the application process, call or write to the admission office of the schools you will con- sider and request a brochure and other pertinent materials. Most schools will require an interview, admission testing, and information from the student’s previous school. Tuition and Fees The tuition and fees for the schools listed in this book vary according to the type of school and location. Although inde- pendent schools typically rely on tuition income as their major source of revenue, some $230,000,000 in financial aid is avail- able each year in CAIS schools for families who qualify. Details on financial aid policies and on applying for tuition assistance may be obtained from the individual schools. 6 Northern California Schools Lafayette San Francisco and Vicinity Bentley School Atherton Contra Costa Jewish Day School Menlo School Livermore Sacred Heart Schools Valley Montessori School Berkeley Los Gatos Archway School Hillbrook School The Berkeley School Mulberry School Black Pine Circle School Yavneh Day School Ecole Bilingue de Berkeley Marin County Danville Brandeis Hillel Day School The Athenian School The Branson School El Cerrito Lycée Français de San Francisco Prospect Sierra School Marin Academy Tehiyah Day School Marin Country Day School Marin Horizon School Half Moon Bay Marin Primary & Middle School Sea Crest School Mount Tamalpais School Hillsborough Saint Mark’s School The Nueva School San Domenico School Crystal Springs Uplands School 7 Menlo Park San Jose Mid-Peninsula High School Almaden Country School The Phillips Brooks School The Harker School Trinity School San Mateo Moraga St. Matthew’s Episcopal Day School The Saklan School The Carey School Odyssey School Napa Ronald C.
