Who We Are
Nestled in the eastern foothills of the Napa Valley, Howell Mountain School serves 90+ students in transitional kindergarten through the eighth grade. With the help of our wonderfully supportive community, we have served the children of Angwin for over 125 years. A lot has changed in this time, but our commitment to providing an exceptional education remains steadfast.

- Providing and further developing a positive, safe, and enriching environment
- Providing and supporting students in academic challenges that foster and nurture problem solving and self-esteem
- Effectively utilizing the talents, services, and support of our staff, parents, and community

We Aim To...
We aim to ensure that all students meet or exceed grade-level standards as well as develop self-worth and social responsibility within a safe, healthy, and nurturing school environment that requires students to think, solve problems, and be creative. We will achieve this through a comprehensive support system, professional collaboration, and strong values of teaching every child.
