This school is just absolutely excellent i am currently in 2008 sending my kids there and it is just a great community and everything come to fisher and everyone is accepting
This is a great school i love it my kids love it and people are just so nice i highly recommend transferring to this school.
Moved here 2 yrs. ago. My experience is that this community is uptight and hard driving. Lots of drugs, $$. The schools reflect that. Competitive sports, bullying at school (not tolerated by admin., but they don't always know). Good teaching. Must be smart, rich, athletic. Big classes. Not personable. Except admin. who are wonderful. Don't know how they manage to work in this community.
The teaching and administrating are all cutting edge. This school is accelerated in multiple areas. Read the school philosophy: they practice it. We LOVE this school. Excellent.
I can't say enough good things about the leadership at Fisher, starting with the principal, who is professional, focused and caring. In our two years at Fisher, the teachers have run the gamut from off-the-charts great to middle of the road, but like any organization, it's hard to find perfection in every member of the team. Overall, Fisher is a great school, and the administration is continually trying to make it even better.
Fisher is an excellent public school with caring administrators, support staff and teachers. Students are in a safe enviornment where they are able to peform at their best. My two childen have received a great education in Los Gatos! I highly recommend this school.
The overall performance is well under expectation and all extra curricular activities are great. However, the academic programs quality is not enough for the kids who has the eager for learning and compare to the rival(?) school in the Saratoga.
Excellent school. New Principal joined in 2 years ago and is excellent professional very focused on improving quality and very responsive to community. Teachers are above average (some totally top-notch) but not uniformly great.
This school is excellent for the average to above average student but is lacking leadership in the special education arena. It has an excellent speech and language specialist.
Horrible school. Horrible teachers. Bad clas sizes. Does not meet indivual students needs. Will not send any of my five beautiful children there.
