Private schools in San Diego County

218 schools with six or more students, from the state's 2025-26 Private School Affidavit data. City and ZIP only.

“No match” means we did not find the school in the ACS WASC accreditation list or the CDSS child-care licensing data by name and city. It does not mean the school is unaccredited or unlicensed, and it does not mean it needs a license. Schools can be accredited by other bodies, and K-12 schools do not need a child-care license. Confirm with the school.

Faith, ratio and school-day length: NCES Private School Survey 2021-22 (older than 12 months; matched by exact name and city, so many are blank). Accreditation: ACS WASC directory 2022-23 (older than 12 months; other accreditors not checked). Licenses: CDSS child care centers data (as of May 2025); the license is often for the school's preschool or after-school program, and each link opens CDSS inspection and complaint reports. Not public yet for most schools: tuition, openings and waitlist, teacher credentials, special-needs support, Google/Yelp ratings, parking. Schools can claim their listing.
