Sierra Hills School is a kindergarten, first and second grade school nestled in the Sierra Nevada foothills. With a student population of 370, we are the foundation school whose children move up as a group to the neighboring Placer Hills for their third through fifth grade education. From Placer Hills School, our students continue learning at our district middle school, Weimar Hills School, and later compose two thirds of the graduating class of Colfax High School.

Located in the small community of Meadow Vista, the school serves children from several rural communities covering 69 square miles. Our ten year old, ten acre school site was planned and built intentionally to serve K-2 students. The building of our school was the culmination of a fifteen year project designed to accommodate a growing population of families choosing to raise children in a country environment. A large, community park as well as a Christmas tree farm border our campus.
