Committed to selective enrollment in Early Childhood (ages 2 1/2 - 5) through Grade 8, the total number of students shall always permit the involvement of each girl and boy in all CHA programs. As one of only 2,000 independent schools in the nation, Chatsworth Hills Academy girls and boys are part of a very selective group of only 700,000 students in the United States who enjoy a truly unique and high quality education.

Early Childhood Program (Beginners, Intermediate and Pre-Kindergarten), Lower School (Kindergarten - Grade 4), Middle School (Grades 5-8), After School & Enrichment Programs, Summer Camp.

Pursuing a spiral curriculum which continually introduces new material while simultaneously reinforcing previous skills and content, the Early Childhood through Grade 4 programs focus on integrating all subjects, creating a comprehensive and expansive educational experience. Students in Grades 5 - 8 focus on both skills and content presented throughout the major departments of a liberal arts and college preparatory program including English, mathematics, history, science, modern language, and the visual and performing arts.

As a member of the National Association of Independent Schools and accredited by both the California Association of Independent Schools and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, CHA is committed to each of the Independent School principles and values expressed below:

Independent schools are independent because they are not for profit, have distinct missions, and are primarily supported by tuition payments, charitable contributions, and endowment revenue. Independent schools meet high accreditation standards and are held accountable by their Board of Trustees rather than being privately owned and/or operated by an individual proprietor, partnership or corporation.

As in all independent schools, CHA students pursue an education that nurtures intellectual curiosity, stimulates personal growth, and encourages critical thinking and innovation. Our teachers create educational experiences that meet the individual needs of each child. Girls and boys are a part of a supportive learning community where the lessons that each student learns on the playing field or theater stage and in community service are as important as those in the classroom. The selective student body is motivated to be enthusiastic and creative about learning within the academically rigorous environment where students are focused on future enrollment at selective secondary schools.
