Strathmore High

Strathmore is a small agricultural community in the foothills of Tulare County, and Strathmore High reflects that tight-knit, rural character — it's the kind of school where everyone knows each other, but academics present a real challenge for families prioritizing college readiness. The school's test scores in English, math, and science trail well behind state averages, which is worth considering for families with high academic expectations. That said, for families rooted in this corner of the San Joaquin Valley who value a close community feel and want their kids close to home, Strathmore High is the heart of this small town.
