Dunn School is a college preparatory school with a focus on developing each student's academic and personal potential. We believe that the depth and quality of the relationship between students and teachers is central to the process of education. Hence, Dunn offers small classes and a unique advisor program. Our students meet with their faculty advisors daily to address academic or personal issues. Our academic curriculum is complimented by our visual and performing arts programs, co-curricular athletics, and outdoor education. Dunn School is located twenty eight miles northeast of Santa Barbara, in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley. Dunn School is in the process of obtaining county approval for a long range capital campaign. This project would include building a new gymnasium/sports center, new administrative offices, and more faculty housing.
