San Jose Christian School does exactly what it exists to do. Not only is it academically rigorous holding two accreditations, but it also strives to be a tri-fold piece of the school-church-home connection. I love that what my son is learning at school about God is the same as what he learns at home and at church. SJCS is a positive reinforcement of our personal faith.

SJCS is a total gem! We have our kids in the preschool and TK and it has been a wonderful experience for them and for us. The pre school is safe, secure, and prioritizes play, while also being highly educational.My oldest is now in PreK at SJCS and they are adding, subtracting, and even speaking in Spanish. I have been incredibly impressed with the curriculum compared to other schools in the area.Also, anytime my child has had a special need or required a service, it was addressed immediately as soon as requested. I greatly appreciate the fact that the school considered and implemented my requests for my children.Lastly, it's relatively affordable as far as private education goes. The preschool is more affordable than some of the others in the area (eg Primrose), and just as great.I'll be sending my youngest to preschool there soon. We love SJCS.

Both of our sons have been enrolled at San Jose Christian since preschool and are now in 1st and 3rd grade. As a new mom, many years ago, I wanted a Christian based, loving and caring environment for my children while I was away at work. The moment I walked into the preschool, I knew my children would be well loved and cared for in my absence. As our boys went through the preschool program and into grade school we fell in love with not only the sense of community and belonging, but the teacher's and staff's dedication to our children's growth both academically and spiritually. As a busy mom, I depend on my "village" to help raise loving, faithful, honest, patient, strong, and intelligent boys. The San Jose Christian community - teacher, staff, administration, and fellow parents are truly part of that village and I am incredibly grateful.

The best decision my parents made for my education and growth as a whole person was to enroll me at San Jose Christian School.For context I attended SJCS from pre-k to 8th grade and just recently graduated at Valley Christian High School with academic honors and the Luke 2:52 award (presented to 5 students who have shown a balanced lifestyle of academic, physical, spiritual and social development & were nominated by staff, teachers, and administrators). While I am proud of these achievements I did not put them in this review to gloat, but rather to show how significant SJCS's impact was on me as a person. 1) The small class sizes helped me to get a personalized education and build a strong relationship with my teachers. I learned the importance of asking for help when you need it and that education is not a one size fits all system. I was able to have more one on one time with my teachers for educational and emotional support at such a crucial growing age than most students I know ever did. While some prospective parents may worry that smaller classes won't help students adjust to a larger high school environment, I would argue that from my own personal experience I found it easy to adjust and that I was academically ahead of my peers from the start. 2) The teachers at SJCS are caring, compassionate, and go above and beyond to help you succeed. During my time at SJCS, my teachers would make time during their own breaks or after school to help me understand academic concepts better. They made sure to have a relationship with every student and were genuinely interested in our lives and our passions. At almost every sports game (yes even the away ones!) teachers would come and cheer on their students, taking time out of their evening to watch us. This evident care for me as a student didn't stop when I graduated from SJCS, as I still have conversations with past teachers who are cheering me on through college and beyond.3) San Jose Christian's built in community helps to foster amazing friendships with classmates. Due to the smaller class size, it really feels like you are in a family-like community. I got to grow up with amazing classmates who pushed me to become a better person and to embrace and love everyone. I never felt lost in a group of students but rather a valued and cared for individual in a nurturing community. 4) The wide array of activities you can participate in as a student helps to nurture your passions. I got to participate in band, jazz band, multiple sports teams, choir, art classes, and theater during my time in the middle school. Not only are these activities an amazing way to make friends but they helped me to grow and discover my interests.In the end if you are looking for a Christian private school for your children I would highly recommend scheduling a visit at SJCS!

My daughter first attended SJCS as a 6th grader, struggling in Math and coming out with straight A's. This school's teachers and leaders truly cared for my daughter. The principal has a genuinely loving heart, not just for her students but also for people in general. If there is one school I support, it would be San Jose Christian School. They are dedicated to growing the whole child, allowing them to flourish with as many gifts as they have. The leadership and the teachers thoroughly honed my daughter's musical, artistic, athletic, and academic skills for the three years she spent here. She graduated as a well-rounded individual, participating in sports, enjoying band, and loving visual art. I am so thankful we chose to move to SJCS. The school's size is what she needed to prepare her for the big big world.

Over the last two years, the efforts made to up leveling the younger children's academic structure has been phenomenal. I was already satisfied when I started our children in their preschool back in 2013, but seeing what they've done to constantly improve the academics has continued to impress me. The faculty and staff are like family, and it's evident that the love and focus they have spans across all of the students and their families as well.

I subbed at this school and loved it! Still do! Great community of teachers and parents. Also some of the sweetest students from infancy to 8th grade.
