About Us

Stevenson's Upper School is home to 520 students, both day and boarding, hailing from 20 states and 16 countries in grades 9-12. Half are day students from local communities (reaching from Carmel to Salinas to Santa Cruz), and half from throughout the United States and around the world. We seek young men and women interested in studying with bright companions, learning from lively and demanding teachers, contributing to a community of independent-minded friends, and choosing activities-academic, artistic, athletic, recreational, service-that inspire their best and bring them joy.
