Welcome to Merryhill School
Preschools, Elementary, & Middle Schools in the Sacramento Area
At Merryhill School, every child is valued, known by name, and encouraged to take an active role in their learning. It’s the foundation of the Merryhill Method, which builds confidence, resilience, and independence through active participation, helping students grow into capable, adaptable individuals. In our classrooms, you’ll find children raising their hands to share an idea, working through a problem that took a few tries to solve, and cheering each other on along the way. That’s what a Merryhill education looks like, from their earliest days with us through their 8th grade graduation.
We would love to meet your family at our next Open House or on a private tour. Complete the form below and our Admissions team will be in touch soon.
Why Families Choose the Merryhill Method
Confidence Practiced Every Day
Confidence is a habit at Merryhill, built through daily practice and active participation in their learning. Through student ambassadors, daily morning meetings, and classroom discussions, children learn to speak up, share ideas, and lead with self-assurance. By the time they graduate, speaking up in a room full of people feels as natural as talking to a friend.
Independence That Lasts a Lifetime
Your child will learn to make choices and take ownership of their work, from putting on their own jacket in preschool, managing their own assignments in elementary school, and mentoring younger students in middle school. It’s independence they’ll carry with them well beyond graduation. Long after they’ve left Merryhill, that same self-direction will show up in how they take on something new.
Resilience Through Every Challenge
Your child will learn to turn an incorrect answer, a failed experiment, or a challenging conversation with a friend into a chance to grow. At Merryhill, we teach students to adjust their approach and keep going, turning setbacks into practice for resilience instead of reasons to quit. Ask any of our teachers and they’ll tell you: our students don’t give up easily.
Every Child Is Known By Name
From the moment your child enters our school, they’re recognized, welcomed, and valued as an individual. Teachers learn each student’s strengths and needs, building the kind of relationships that make school feel like family. Our classrooms are warm and inviting, so our students feel comfortable exploring and learning.
One Continuous Journey
Preschool through middle school unfolds as one intentionally designed experience. Familiar teachers, consistent expectations, and the same Merryhill Method carry them from their first day to their last. By then, they’ve traded the role of a new student for the role of a leader.

At Merryhill, art is integrated into our curriculum from infancy all the way through middle school. As students get older, that early creative exploration turns into real ownership as they share their art with their peers, rework a project that didn’t come together the first time, decide for themselves how to bring their next idea to life.
