The Midland Experience
For Los Angeles & Orange County 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, Los Angeles & Orange County Families!
Living your education in Los Olivos, CA
Midland School is a 100% boarding school environment located about a 3 to 4 hour drive from most places in Los Angeles and Orange County. Midland has a significant contingent of students are from Los Angeles and Orange County, 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 Los Angeles and Orange County 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.
