  • Living the Cougar Spirit: Alumni Spotlights — Grace Wang Mellis

  • The History of Clairbourn — A Century of Vision, Growth, and Heart

    In 1926, Arthur K. Bourne, heir to the Singer Sewing fortune, envisioned a school for his three children that was grounded in strong family values, academic excellence, and character building.

As enrollment quickly grew, the school soon outgrew the Bourne family home and relocated to a bungalow on San Pasqual Street. As the school grew, so did a strong sense of community, a defining hallmark of Clairbourn that remains today, 100 years later.
