 About Us

  

Saint Hilary School offers a Primary Kindergarten through Grade 8 curriculum encompassing academics, community, and spirituality. Each of these guiding principles serves as a pillar of our “whole child” educational approach.

Located on a beautiful site overlooking the San Francisco Bay, in Tiburon, Marin County, the Saint Hilary School campus offers a safe, protective environment for students.
 
At Saint Hilary School, we pursue academic excellence through a challenging and engaging curriculum that produces a measurable record of achievement; our graduating classes consistently rank within the top 10% nationally in math and language arts, two of the critical areas measured by the national standardized Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS). The fact that our students test well above the national average in all ITBS areas is a testament to the dedication of our students,families and teachers.

We augment our students’ experience by developing and nurturing a vibrant, fully engaged community around students and their parents, teachers, and families, as well as the larger Saint Hilary Parish.

Through religious education, our students gain exposure to additional growth opportunities as they learn about the Catholic Faith and develop their own unique relationship with God.

No matter the age or the grade level at which they joined us, our Grade 8 students take the stage at graduation as young people nearing adulthood who have knowledge of self, of social responsibility, and moreover, a passion for learning.

About the San Francisco landscape* 'Flight' by Ric Miller
​​

Ric Miller, a Sausalito floating home denizen since 1994 expresses a passion in his panoramic landscape photographs. These images allow you to “step inside” the captured, vibrant scenes and relive the moment in time.

“I shoot very wide angle photographs to closely approximate an expression of visual reality.” In turn, this creates a tension between the strange and the familiar in our lives.

The collection consists of scenes of California landscapes including the eclectic Sausalito floating home community, the wild Pacific coastline, California wildflowers, the Sierras, and the deserts of Death Valley and the Mojave Preserve.

These high resolution panoramic images are a series of 16-18 individual photographs meticulously seamed via computer and printed on fine art paper or canvas. The printing process is referred to as “giclée”. The artwork surpasses ordinary photographs in clarity, beauty and longevity.

Ric Miller’s roots lie in photography having learned the art of black and white from his father, Bob. His talent in composition and print making is from his training as an architect and practice as a designer.

Miller’s goals are to have his artwork become ubiquitous among fine art collectors and for his images to raise consciousness of the precious natural beauty that surrounds us.
