Eliot Elementary

Gilroy is a tight-knit agricultural city at the southern edge of Silicon Valley, known for its garlic farms, strong Latino community roots, and a slower pace than the tech corridor to the north. Eliot Elementary serves families in this working-class neighborhood, and while its academic scores sit below state averages, its science performance shows some relative bright spots worth noting. Families who are deeply embedded in the local community and value neighborhood schools over commuting to higher-ranked options may find Eliot a familiar and comfortable fit.
