My daughter graduated started Stanford last year and commented on how easy it was compared to CSUS. She has yet to dip below an A so I think she was well prepared. We have a son that started CSUS this year and has totally loved it. There is a reason why this is the #1 middle/high school on the West coast. not cheap- but you get what you pay for.

We are most impressed by the quality of the faculty. Not only the school is academically vigorous, they certainly care about character of students. The head of school is very intelligent and she leads by example. The school has the culture of 'taking action' and 'being open' when something goes wrong. As a parent, I feel very comfortable about bring up any issues with the teachers. The teachers expect students to perform at a very high level. At the same time, they are sensitive to emotional needs.

The quality of academics is incredible and hands on. Everything is so easily understood by the student's that they learn so much so quickly and retain the knowledge too. All extracurricular activities are easily availble as it's a small school, you can try anything. Parent's are very invovlved in planning events and donating. Great things happen.
