Built for How Children Actually Grow
Children thrive when they're known as individuals, challenged thoughtfully, and given room to explore. At Woodland Hills Private School, our Preschool and TK–5 Elementary programs bring together ambitious academics and remarkably rich experiences in an education intentionally designed around their development.
The Benefits of a Classroom Community. The Attention of a Small Group.
Our small classes and two fully qualified teachers make it possible to know each child well and teach with greater precision. Teachers identify what students have mastered, where they need support, and what they're ready to learn next. Children can move ahead without artificial ceilings, while developing confidence, independence, and a voice in their learning, all within a vibrant community of peers.
Discover the WHPS Advantage →An Education That Grows With Them
From TK through fifth grade, each year builds on the last. Teachers know what each child is ready to learn and provide the right support or challenge, with no artificial limits on how far students can advance. Our thoughtfully designed program helps children discover their strengths, become more independent, and take ownership of their learning. Ambitious academics are balanced with exceptional enrichment taught by dedicated specialists, hands-on experiences, and plenty of time to simply be a kid.
Explore the Elementary Experience →Childhood Starts Here
Young children's curiosity deserves to be taken seriously. Through rich play and discovery, teachers build on their interests, extend their thinking, and give learning surprising depth. Along the way, children develop the skills, independence, and confidence that lay the foundation for a lifetime of learning.

Where the Living World Becomes the Classroom
A living laboratory right on campus. Children encounter animals and the natural world firsthand, learning to observe closely, ask better questions, and connect what they discover to the science they're studying. It's the kind of experience that makes abstract ideas tangible and memorable.
Explore the Science & Nature Center →It feels like home. Everyone knows our children, and they have always felt that they belong. Watching our oldest thrive in middle school as a confident, self-aware, natural leader has shown us just how much WHPS gave them. We wanted our children to be well-rounded, curious, and engaged in the world around them. WHPS gave them a foundation we couldn't have imagined, and we couldn't be more grateful.WHPS Parent
Ambitious Learning, a Childhood Full of Joy
Big ideas and high expectations belong alongside muddy shoes, close friendships, fresh air, and laughter. We believe a remarkable education should make room for all of it.
