Peregrine School is a nonprofit private school based in Davis, California, that blends classical liberal arts study with a child-centered, project-based approach to learning. It was founded in 2007 by Co-Directors Lorie Hammond, PhD, and Elena Whitcombe, MD, a mother-daughter team. The curriculum weaves arts and sciences and Spanish into project work, with weekly enrichment in yoga, dance, music, and drama taught by specialists, and a health-forward program that includes daily physical activity, school gardens, and a nutritious lunch and snack program, all within small class sizes and low student-teacher ratios.

The school serves families seeking private education that combines rigorous academics with hands-on, interdisciplinary learning and wellness. In 2021 it received an Environmental Recognition Award from the City of Davis in the nonprofit category, reflecting its engagement with the local community. The institution operates in the education sector, offering a locally focused program in Davis that emphasizes a balanced, all-around educational experience.
