What Our Community Says...

"Neskowin Valley School instilled within me a desire to learn. This alone has undoubtedly served me better than anything else learned in grade school. To grow up wanting to learn, thirsting for knowledge, and having fun learning is what grade school is and should be all about."

It is magical what can happen when

teachers, staff and students love the

environment in which they work and learn. NVS

feels like home and makes every member of its

community feel whole. Students are afforded space for

their emotions, so that they feel respected and their needs matter. All feelings are ok at NVS, and students learn how to express themselves in ways that harness their agency as young people. The opportunities for growth at NVS are limitless.

At NVS you get to spend time with kids who

are older than you and younger than you. I really like

that our classes are mixed age so that I can have a good influence on kids who are younger than me. It makes me feel really proud when I can help with their writing, reading, and math. My friend helps me with spelling too. I think it’s special that kids get to help teach each other here. One person helps another, and then they help someone else, and the helping

just goes on and on and on.
