School Overview

Cherrywood Elementary sits in the Berryessa neighborhood of northeast San Jose, a quietly solid part of the city known for its family-friendly streets and proximity to Penitencia Creek Trail and Alviso Adobe Community Park. The school consistently performs well across the board, with science scores that really stand out, making it a great fit for families who value a well-rounded academic foundation without the intense pressure of some of the South Bay's more hyper-competitive school communities.
