As someone who goes here, I’ve been really proud to see how the school has grown. It’s not perfect—no school is—but I think Castilleja has done a good job of sticking to what it stands for, even with the changes in leadership and location.Yeah, it can be tough socially at first, especially for girls
Posted by a student on 4/19/2025This school is very intentional about their mission and they deliver. Our family is incredibly happy with the experience, the quality of education, the balance between academics, athletics, arts, and SEL.

Posted by a parent on 10/15/2023I am the mom of an alum, and while she graduated over 10 years ago, Castilleja is 113 years old and I doubt it's changed significantly in the recent past. My daughter still says that Castilleja was best choice we could have made. She was a smart but shy girl with a quirky sense of humor and a deep c

If you're not, avoid it at all costs. The admin's not going to look out for you, and the student body will eat you

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBoth our kids attended Casa at Palo Alto (pre-primary through 1st grade - 4 years, pre-primary to pre-K/primary - 3 years) and developed early foundational skills from finger dexterity, numbers, letters, reading and arithmetic, to how to get along with a group of mixed age peers as well as how to be independent. The teachers welcome any guidance on how to best support the kids and also advocate back to parents about the needs of the kids based on their observations and deep experience. Having formed bonds with their teachers, esp. Mrs. Roshan, our kids would have loved to stay if they could and enjoy going back to visit.Parent Review1y ago
