School Reviews

5  
I highly recommend HCA to all parents in San Mateo County. This school though small and went through challenges during and after the pandemic, withstood the test and because of academic excellence, and dedication by teachers, aides, staff, and parents was granted/renewed accreditation by ACSI. The students are happy, safe, and thriving. The teacher-student ratio is 2:1 compared to 22:1 in other schools or public elementary schools. The children are well-behaved and respectful.
