The Midland Experience
For San Diego Families
At Midland School, students live their education. Lessons extend beyond the classroom walls as instructors and students explore the frontiers of education together.
Welcome, San Diego Families!
Living your education in Los Olivos, CA
Midland School is a 100% boarding school environment located about a 4-5 hour drive from most places in San Diego. Midland has a significant contingent of students are from Southern California, with about 15% of newly admitted students calling this area home. A further 20% of students hail from California’s central coast. Since all our students are boarding students, they share the same experiences and build one tight-knit community.
While many of our San Diego families never considered boarding before they encountered Midland, they consistently share that our 6-7 week academic cycles followed by a week of vacation have allowed them to stay connected with their children and grow closer during the high school years.
We intentionally connect families who live near each other for the purpose of car-pooling. The school provides transportation to and from the airport and train station in Santa Barbara/Goleta when it’s time for students to arrive or depart for breaks. Direct flights from San Diego to Santa Barbara are typically available on United and Delta.
