Image of The Saklan School, Pre-K Through 8 The Saklan School, Pre-K Through 8:
Saklan Valley School is an accredited, non-sectarian, non-profit, co-educational day school educating students in preschool through to 8th grade. We are located in Moraga in the Lamorinda area of Contra Costa County in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are one of only two such schools situated east of the Caldecott Tunnel. Saklan enrolls about approximately 140 students from around the East Bay Area, from Alameda to Clayton, and from Berkeley and Pinole to San Ramon.

Moraga Valley is just ten minutes from Orinda and the Orinda BART station, and only 15-20 minutes from Oakland and Berkeley to the west, El Sobrante to the north, Pleasant Hill, Concord and Martinez to the north-east, and Walnut Creek and Alamo to the east. Saklan Valley School can be reached conveniently from most towns in the East Bay. Students and teachers commute easily from many locations including Lafayette, Walnut Creek, Orinda, Oakland, Berkeley, Hercules, and San Francisco.

Saklan Valley School is based in the heart of beautiful Moraga Valley, a wonderfully peaceful setting surrounded by hills and centrally located to the entire East Bay. This small town setting, far enough from the freeway to make it truly a serene and quiet environment, provides our school with a true “country day” setting for our campus.

The campus features two lovely acres, many beautiful redwood, oak and elm trees, a bubbling creek running alongside the back, two terrific playgrounds and an excellent sports court for basketball, volleyball and badminton.
