Located on a beautiful campus in Rolling Hills Estates with spacious classrooms, we provide individualized education to students in kindergarten through 8th grade in a warm and caring environment.
Small Classes. Big Education. Our teachers assess each child`s academic, social, and emotional profile to create a personalized learning plan for every student. Our small class sizes of around 12-15 students allow teachers to focus on each student`s individual learning needs.
A Loving and Caring Environment. Our students love coming to school. Our teachers bring joy into the process of learning and discover what inspires each student. It is in this type of environment that children are free to take risks, grow academically, and are encouraged to be their best selves.
A Commitment to Character Building. Our teaching of the character qualities caring, respect, attitude, gratitude, and self-control has its roots in the founding of our school and is integrated into classroom discussions and curriculum every day. A strong character coupled with strong academics enables students to lead a meaningful life.

School Notes
Established in 1961 The school's founders began with the
concept of opening a school that would support the dignity and
worth of each individual. They selected the beautiful, country-like
location at Palos Verdes Drive North and Rolling Hills Road in the
City of Rolling Hills Estates, CA. A distinctive
characteristic of the School has been its loving and positive
environment. Visitors to our campus frequently remark, "These
students are so happy - and their teachers are too!" Peninsula
Heritage School emphasizes the development of the whole child and
of ethical character. It promotes acceptance and appreciation of

BEST DISTANCE LEARNING! We are so thankful that our son is at Peninsula Heritage School during these uncertain times. His education has not been compromised whatsoever, and his full school day has provided much needed routine and consistency. His 4th grade teachers are beyond caring and are attentive to his social/emotional needs as well. Thank you, PHS!

After having a child at the local public school for several years, and visiting every private school in the area, I chose Peninsula Heritage for both my children and have never looked back. There is no school that I know of that offers all that PHS does: a top notch academic program that is individualized for each child, a creative and innovative P.E. program, spectacular science, computer, library and performing arts programs, and a warm, nurturing and dedicated principal and staff. When you walk on that campus, you and your children will never want to leave!
