Alice C. Stelle Middle

Tucked into the hills of Calabasas, Stelle Middle sits in one of the San Fernando Valley's most sought-after suburban pockets, where the Las Virgenes district has built a solid reputation for strong academics and well-resourced schools. Ranking in the 80th percentile statewide, it's a genuinely well-rounded middle school with particular strength in math, making it a natural fit for families who want rigorous preparation heading into high school. The area itself has a quiet, foothill feel — close enough to the city but with a slower pace — and families who settle here tend to prioritize good schools as much as the lifestyle.
