Hundred Hills aims to become community school in Bealton with unique learning model

A proposed private school, Hundred Hills, is generating excitement in Buellton as it seeks approval from the Planning Commission. The school aims to provide a unique educational experience, drawing interest from local families and promising to enhance the community's educational landscape.

During the July 3 meeting, representatives highlighted that 32% of their student applicants are from Buellton, with a significant number also hailing from the nearby Riverview Park neighborhood. The school’s leadership emphasized their commitment to addressing community concerns regarding parking, traffic, and architectural compatibility, showcasing a thoughtful approach to their development plans.

The applicant passionately described Hundred Hills as a potential "incubator" for educational growth, aiming to expand from preschool through eighth grade. They expressed hope that the school would become a lasting fixture in the community, providing families with an alternative to the current single elementary school option.

Community engagement is a priority for Hundred Hills, with plans for seven annual events designed to welcome local residents onto the campus. This initiative aims to foster a sense of community and collaboration, reinforcing the school’s commitment to being an integral part of Buellton.

As the Planning Commission deliberates, the future of Hundred Hills hangs in the balance, with supporters eager to see the positive impact this educational venture could have on local families and the broader community.
