We have two kids one in Kindergarten and the other in Pre-K that attends Stratford School Los Gatos Campus location. We are very happy with the staffs performance and professionalism. The teachers are well rounded and show the individual attention that kids need. We find that the campus is managed well and the extracurricular activities easy for our kids to attend. The school really encourages parent involvement and cultivates a sense of community.

I was very unhappy with the school. two of my kids attebded this school. academically they proclain their standards are high, but they are not as high compared to other schools. Writing, an important subject was not taught well at all. I was not happy with spanish either.After 3 to 4 yearsos Spanish 99% of the class could not speak more than a couple of sentences. They clain thekids work on computers. They do but again nothing of substance is covered.Plus, it's expensive compared to other schools.

Starford schools have given our 2 boys (K and 2nd grade) a great education so far. It offers the right balance between academic subjects and more artistic subjects (like art, music and even PE now). We highly recommend it for working parents who want to make sure that their kids get a great elementary education to start them off in life.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
