Donner Trail is a three-room school house that 62-75 students occupy for 180 days of the year. The "Bear Lair" houses grades K-1, "The Hive" houses grades 2-3 students, and the "Yuba Colony" houses grades 4-5.  Along with intensive focus on core subject areas, students also participate in many activities such as PE, music, and art.  Because of the multi-age classrooms, students learning goals and expectations are differentiated to accommodate their learning styles and developmental levels so that all students are successful learners.
