Don Callejon

Don Callejon is a strong K-8 option tucked into the tech-adjacent neighborhoods of northern Santa Clara, where families tend to be ambitious about education and deeply connected to the innovation economy humming nearby. With scores consistently in the 80th percentile range across English, math, and science, it draws families who want a rigorous academic foundation without having to navigate the private school maze. The K-8 structure is a real selling point — kids build lasting friendships and a sense of belonging that smaller elementary-only schools can't always offer, and parents appreciate not having to switch schools mid-childhood in an already fast-moving area.
