School Overview

Tucked into the Blossom Valley neighborhood of South San Jose, Leonard Herman Intermediate is a standout middle school serving grades 5–8 with particularly strong science scores that put it in the top tier statewide. The surrounding community is family-friendly and suburban, with a quieter, more residential feel than the busier corridors of Silicon Valley — the kind of place where kids bike to parks and families put down roots for the long haul. It's a great fit for families who want a rigorous academic environment without the intensity of some of the Valley's more hypercompetitive school zones.
