School Overview

Tucked into one of the Peninsula's most established communities, South Hillsborough serves a neighborhood where tree-lined streets and well-kept estates reflect the same attention to excellence you'll find in the classrooms — math scores here sit at the very top of the state, and English isn't far behind. Families who land in Hillsborough tend to be drawn by the combination of top-performing public schools and a quiet, residential feel that sits surprisingly close to both San Francisco and Silicon Valley. It's the kind of place where the school genuinely feels like the heart of the neighborhood, and parents tend to be deeply involved in making it stay that way.
