School Overview

Nestled in the scenic Ojai Valley, Matilija Middle serves a community known for its artsy, bohemian spirit and tight-knit small-town feel — the kind of place where families trade city life for fresh air, hiking trails, and a slower pace. The school shows particular strength in science, which fits well with the outdoor-minded culture of the surrounding area. Families drawn to Ojai's creative, nature-loving lifestyle will find a school that reflects the character of the town itself, even as there's room for continued growth in English and math.
