Faculty & Staff
Sierra’s educators are the best the Bay Area has to offer. Each teacher possesses the knowledge, experience, and love for teaching that is necessary to guide and inspire students to realize their full potential. They know how to challenge students without pressure so that all students can confidently work to the best of their capabilities.
To guide students on the path to a well-balanced, culturally rich life, our faculty encourages enthusiasm for academics and for the arts.
Further, we strive to help students develop a solid sense of self-worth and integrity so that they will not only be scholars but also strong, community-minded individuals prepared to succeed in the many realms of our diverse society.
“Sierra provides a unique balance of academic and social-emotional learning opportunities which have provided my son the best opportunity to develop into a well-rounded student and citizen.”

“A mother of two Sierra students, says, “To me Sierra School has proven to be a dynamic learning community committed to student success. In partnership with parents, and in an atmosphere of open communication, Sierra school enables every student to reach its potential."
