The 2025–26 school year marks 175 years of values-driven education at San Domenico School, a milestone we look forward to celebrating all year long. As California’s first independent school, we’ve always been focused on preparing students for the world ahead. Our anniversary theme—Rooted for the Future—pays tribute to the strong foundation that has shaped generations of SD graduates and affirms our commitment to preparing today’s students for what comes next.

As part of our 175th anniversary celebration, San Domenico is proud to present the Rooted for the Future Speaker Series: four thought-provoking evenings designed to support parents and caregivers in navigating the complexities of raising children today. Each event features nationally recognized thought leaders and SD community voices, offering practical insights on resilience through the lenses of education, technology, and culture. We invite all who are curious, compassionate, and committed to supporting young people to join us and be part of these important conversations.

All events are free and open to the public, intended for an adult audience, and will take place on the San Domenico campus. Space is limited, and we encourage you to RSVP soon.
