Marin Primary & Middle School, founded in 1975, is a preschool through eighth grade co-educational independent school located in Larkspur, Marin County, California. We believe that childhood is a time to be treasured, so we strive to protect the pace of each child's journey from childhood to adolescence. We believe in educating the whole child and recognize that every child learns differently. We don't ask, "how smart is each child," but rather, "how is each child smart."

"Marin Primary" opened its doors as a preschool in the basement of a Lutheran church. Five years later, the school moved to its present 8 acre location on the border between Larkspur and Corte Madera. One class per year was added until the school encompassed grades PreK-5. In 1994 the school added sixth grade and changed its name to Marin Primary & Middle School. The MP&MS student body now includes 340 students from preschool through eighth grade. The three divisions, preschool, primary and middle school, are structured to meet the unique needs of students at these developmental levels and led by an energetic and talented faculty with a committed administration.

Marin Primary & Middle School is accredited by CAIS (California Association of Independent Schools) and WASC (Western Association of Schools and Colleges).
