Goleta Family School is an alternative, tuition-free program offered by the Goleta Union School District to families with children in kindergarten through grade six.

Our curriculum is child-centered with an emphasis on creative expression, independent thinking, and cooperative social skills. The unique multi-grade setting allows the students to learn at their own paces and enjoy ongoing cross-age tutoring. Each year we have LIMITED SPACE available for new incoming students, so you must apply before March 1st, 2012!

Our Parent Info Night is a great way to learn more about our program! Please note that we require that interested families also come on a tour
during class hours.

Please note:  GFS is open to residents of the Goleta Union School District.  In order to apply for admission to GFS you need to attend one parent info night AND one school tour. We will be offering additional info nights and tours before the March 1 enrollment lottery.

For more information, or to schedule a class tour, please contact Michelle Howard at 455-4808 — or — michelle@wyp.org.
