Environment

The Dorris-Eaton School’s campuses are tucked into residential areas within two established San Francisco Bay Area communities. Conveniently located, both campuses have quick access off Interstate 680 and are less than four miles apart.

The Walnut Creek elementary acreage is nestled in a small valley, surrounded by extensive playing fields. Along with its spacious classrooms, the campus houses an 11,000 volume library, two multipurpose rooms, a technology lab, and designated Spanish, art and music rooms.

The classroom atmosphere, where politeness and consideration are the norm, is nurturing, comfortable and moderately structured. As students and faculty move through open-air hallways, lively interaction takes over. Play fields are constantly filled with the exuberance of children at their natural best.

The preschool occupies a five-acre, park-like campus in nearby Alamo. Two preschool buildings house six bright and comfortable classrooms and a 1,000 volume library. The Junior Kindergarten class is housed in a cottage at the top of the property. Classrooms are alive with laughter and the excitement of learning as teachers guide students’ social, emotional and academic development.



The difference is education.
