Parents founded Cliff Valley School 40 years ago, and remain at the heart of the Cliff Valley community. Our parents tend to be our school's biggest proponents -- because they've seen the results of a progressive, caring, child-centered approach to education.  We don't merely allow parental involvement, we encourage it -- and our parents expect it. Parents are active partners in a Cliff Valley education -- volunteering in the classroom, sharing their skills with students, communicating with their child's teachers, and supporting the school in its operations and growth.
