School Overview

Sequoia High sits in the heart of Redwood City, a city that's grown into one of the Peninsula's more dynamic and diverse communities, sandwiched between the tech wealth of Palo Alto and the bayside energy of San Carlos. The school lands solidly in the middle of California's rankings, with particular strength in math and science that makes it a decent fit for students with STEM interests. Families who value a multicultural campus with a genuine mix of backgrounds — rather than the more homogenous feel of some neighboring district schools — often find Sequoia a refreshing fit.
