Castile Canyon Scientology School, students in the greenhouse, showing tomato harvest

Castile Canyon Scientology School was located in the foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains, 3 miles east of the City of San Jacinto—40 miles from Palm Springs and Big Bear, and 100 miles south-east of Los Angeles. It was on 478 acres of land, of which 15 acres comprised the school campus.

From 1990 until 2000 Castile Canyon Ranch housed a boarding school for the children of the senior clergy of the Church of Scientology International.  Alumni and friends of the school look back fondly at the days they spent at Castile Canyon on the shoulder of Mount San Jacinto.
