School Overview

Leigh High sits in the Cambrian neighborhood of San Jose, a quieter, family-friendly pocket of the South Bay that feels a step removed from the hustle of Silicon Valley while still being deeply connected to it. The school consistently ranks among California's best, with particularly strong math and science scores that reflect the tech-minded community it serves — a natural fit for families who prioritize STEM alongside well-rounded academics. Parents in the Cambrian area tend to be engaged and invested, and Leigh has the kind of steady, community-rooted reputation that keeps families choosing it year after year.
