School Overview

Tucked into the Sierra Nevada foothills of Madera County, North Fork Elementary serves a tight-knit rural community where kids grow up knowing their teachers and neighbors by name. Science is a relative strength here, which makes sense given the school's setting near Bass Lake and the surrounding national forest — there's no shortage of real-world inspiration for that kind of curiosity. Families drawn to small-town mountain living, where the pace is slower and the community connection runs deep, will find this school a natural fit for their kids.
