Welcome to Marin Primary & Middle School

Welcome to Marin Primary & Middle School. The heart of the MP&MS experience is a tight-knit, inclusive community paired with a hands-on curriculum that builds academic and emotional confidence. Our mission is to equip students to become empowered learners, playful innovators, and empathetic leaders who step into the world with poise and purpose.

That personalized connection begins right now with our admissions process. We are eager to show you the magic of MP&MS and answer any questions you have—from campus parking to how our values align with your family's.

Please reach out at any time. We look forward to connecting with you.

Sincerely,

Brian Barish

"My daughter found 8th grade lessons thought-provoking and challenging. Students were taught to think inquisitively and to study with intent. Her academic preparation at MP&MS [led] to a natural progression to a rigorous, fast-paced curriculum in high school. She has kept her study materials from 8th grade and uses them as a reference. These lessons will help all students succeed wherever they go."
