Since 1982, Anacapa School has provided transformational curriculum rooted in experiential and project-based teaching and learning within a tight-knit, supportive community for grades 7 through 12. With a 5:1 student-to-teacher ratio, connection is key to our being able to inspire joyful learners and courageous leaders.

Our experiential education model means our courses’ learning outcomes are not just essays and exams but hands-on projects that require sustained inquiry that is interdisciplinary and collaborative in nature. Our historic campus in the heart of downtown Santa Barbara provides our students a unique opportunity to connect with downtown businesses, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies and to expand their learning through leadership opportunities within our community.

Anacapa School relies on fundraising to meet our annual operating budget and to provide tuition scholarships to outstanding students. Our annual Spring Social & Auction is our primary fundraiser, and your donations will make it possible for us to continue to provide excellent education to our middle and high school students.

The students, faculty, and families of Anacapa School thank you for supporting our very special school and community.
