Del Rey Elementary

Tucked into the rolling hills of Orinda, Del Rey Elementary sits at the heart of one of the East Bay's most sought-after communities — a small, tight-knit city where tree-lined streets, top-rated schools, and a genuine small-town feel make it a magnet for families who want suburban calm without straying too far from the Bay Area's energy. Del Rey consistently ranks among the very best elementary schools in California, with near-perfect scores across English, math, and science, making it a natural fit for families who prioritize academics and expect a school that will genuinely challenge their kids. Orinda is the kind of place where neighbors know each other and parents are deeply involved, and that community spirit comes through clearly in everything Del Rey does.
