School Overview

Coast Union High sits in the quiet coastal village of Cambria, a charming enclave of pine trees and ocean fog tucked between Big Sur and Morro Bay — the kind of place where people move specifically to slow down and put down roots. The school serves a tight-knit community, and with strong English scores and solid performance across core subjects, it punches well above its small-town size. Families drawn to an unhurried, nature-surrounded lifestyle who still want meaningful academic opportunities for their kids will find a lot to like here.
