A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.

Dunham Elementary School is a small, rural K-8 institution located in the scenic hills of Petaluma, California. As the heart of the single-school Dunham Elementary School District, it offers a unique, intimate educational environment that emphasizes close-knit community values and individualized attention. The school is known for its multi-grade classrooms and a peaceful, nature-oriented setting that fosters a supportive atmosphere for students from transitional kindergarten through eighth grade.

Academically, the school focuses on providing a well-rounded education that prepares students for success in high school and beyond, often benefiting from smaller class sizes that allow teachers to tailor instruction to individual learning needs. Beyond the core curriculum, the school integrates its rural surroundings into the learning experience, encouraging students to engage with their environment. Because it serves as the center of its local community, Dunham Elementary maintains strong parent involvement and a collaborative culture, making it a distinct alternative to larger, more traditional school district settings in the North Bay area.
