GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

TLDR: If you are looking at Sunol Glen in 2024 educate yourself on the drama that is unfolding at this school. There is a lot of change underway, and a conservative school board is quickly changing what had once been an idealylic place for kids. The school board had been mostly liberal and very welcoming. 80% of this school is transfers (216 students and 2.9 million of the overall budget.) Only 20% (55 students and $700k of the budget) are from within the local area. The most current board has a conservative majority and they are being influenced by Moms For Liberty and other far right groups. They are starting to run a "back to basics" focus. The principal of 16 years has retired (the board made it clear they were after her job). And, there's a recall going on. So before signing up do some research and google Sunol Glen School Board.

Was a great school, their board recently voted in two board members that take their game plan from Moms for Liberty. The school has changed from inclusive to divided. The conservative majority doesn’t seem too like “ outsiders”, which is 80% of the school. Without the “outsiders” the schools budget...

There's reason to be concerned about funding, curriculum, and teacher satifaction.Until recently, the school board had been mostly liberal an...
