School Overview

Rod Kelley Elementary sits in Gilroy, the self-proclaimed "Garlic Capital of the World," a tight-knit agricultural city at the southern edge of Santa Clara County where the pace is slower than Silicon Valley but the community pride runs deep. The school lands right around the middle of the pack statewide, with math being a relative strength, making it a solid choice for families looking for a grounded neighborhood school experience. It tends to appeal to families who value community connection and are drawn to Gilroy's more affordable, small-town feel compared to the rest of the Bay Area.
