Greetings, and Welcome!
Nestled in the rural dairy lands of North Petaluma, Dunham Elementary Charter School serves 180 students in grades TK-6. Our small size affords us the ability to know every family and child on a personal level: their likes, their learning styles, and their dreams. With only one class per grade level, our kids feel a real sense of family and stability as they grow up together.
At Dunham we offer:
- Small Class Sizes Individual Attention
- Project and Tech-Based Learning
- One laptop per child
- Beautiful Country Setting
- Garden, Drama, P.E., and Music
- Affordable Aftercare
- Small Group instruction for remedial and accelerated learning
- Strong community involvement
Because Kindergarten usually starts the year with a waiting list, I always encourage parents to apply early. We conduct one lottery per month, and those who arrive early are typically able to secure a spot. If you are interested in another grade level, give us a call for information about availability.
If you would like meet with me personally and tour the campus, just call the office and schedule an appointment. We also have a Facebook page, which can help give you a feel for the school and community. "Like" us to receive updates!
Thanks for visiting -
Adam Schaible, Principal/Superintendent
