Avalon School is a K-12 school in Avalon, California on Santa Catalina Island, 26 miles off the coast of California. The school is a part of the Long Beach Unified School District.

A remote one-room school house, Two Harbors Elementary located 18 miles (29 km) (an hour's bus ride) away at Two Harbors, closed in 2014 due to low enrollment, and its students were moved to Avalon School. [3]
