Beautiful campus with lovely views of Mt. Diablo. Supportive administration with mostly strong teachers. Great band program run by Carl Kaiser (yearly, well reviewed Disneyland performances by Symphonic Band)and fun after school drama (Drama Mama). No school sponsored sports teams but gym is used by many youth basketball programs. Baseball and AYSO soccer on attached fields. Friendly PFC.
