The teachers here are extremely rude! During pickup, a teacher screamed at my daughter while all…read morecars were completely stopped. I told that teacher to stop yelling my daughter because I saw my daughter suddenly feel so scared and shocked by that yelling! And suddenly three teachers came to me and explained they didn't want my daughter to run over the car, but all the cars were stopped, how could she get run over?! That's ridiculous! I saw a big fear on my daughter's face, but that teacher still kept interrogating her rudely: 'Do you know that? Do you know that!' and I said:" Stop!"and I saw my daughter just frozen there by their ridiculous behavior! And also if the goal is to protect kids, there should be one clear entrance -- not all open entrances with Teachers yelling at children in the first place. I have witnessed multiple teachers yelling at students. I will never accept this yelling culture. This is unacceptable behavior from school staff.

My son has been going to Think Academy for almost two months now. We enrolled late in the middle of…read morethe Fall session. Teacher Bowen not only helped my son grasp all of the difficult concepts quickly, but also helped my son develop passion, love, and confidence in math. Teacher Bowen is very caring, attentive, and encouraging. My son has made tremendous progress with him. It was such a blessing that we found this place and Teacher Bowen is the very best! I would highly recommend Think Academy to anyone looking for a math class outside school!

Absolutely love the TK/K class. The class size is small due to the Cupertino population aging with…read moreno new inflow of young parents. In addition to that, a big chunk of teachers and students left after some conflict with the former principal. The school is now rebuilding with the new principal, Dr. Palladino, who is awesome with kids. The TK class I've experienced so far is fantastic. The curriculum is well structured and my child is engaged all day, thanks to the small class size. They even split the already tiny class to fit each child's needs. I've noticed that a few kids are doing additions and some kids are taking it a bit slower and focusing on writing numbers and counting. I've toured almost every school within a 15 minute drive and SJC had the most productive and structured daily schedule for TKs. I felt like most of the schools have too much free playtime and nap time and some have half-day classmates, meaning all the learning ends by noon. At SJC, the teachers are doing something with the kids all day, whereas many schools have several hours of mere childcare. I love that the day includes number senses, math, English and language arts every day. They also learn Spanish (the teacher is amazing btw), P.E., art, music, science once a week. The teacher follows a well-known curriculum from start to finish, rather than piecing in materials from here and there. Another point I love about this school is that the older kids are nicer in small communities. The big kids play with my child and take care of her at extended care and everyone gives my child a hug when I pick her up. I highly recommend SJC. I've seen some people discouraged to join due to the small class size but I'm seeing positive effects on my child. The kids all play well together and they don't divid into groups. The eight graders look like they are basically a family. I suggest that you at least try it out in TK and see how it is. If you decide to move, most schools expand their class size in K, so it won't be that hard to get in.

I don't know why people kill an arm and leg to go to this school! So it is cupertino school…read moredistrict with amazing scores. But it the parents and the excessive after school enrichment classes and the family discipline that is giving them the scores not the teaching of the school. To shorten a few points: 1. The principal is a newbie with major power trips. She lacks common sense and cooperation and empathy. Not a place to have your child spend 8 hours a day. Not a place to bring up your child with this type of attitude and behavior. 2.The drop off and pick up is a nightmare. For Kindergarten, you must park on the streets, and walk to school. On rainy days, this is horrible. There is never a spot to park, you have to run to school to find out that the teacher makes kids line outside and closes the door right at 8am. There you are with a tardy slip because of poorly managed traffic and lack of parking. 3. Two classrooms are shared in the same space. How are kids supposed to focus on their teacher while another one is talking another material on the other side of the room! Respect and love your kids and don't go to this school.

There is plenty of shade for parents to cool in the kindergarten area. This is a great place to take your kids because they can go from playground to playground. There is also a large grassy area, basketball courts and hop scotch outlines. Unlike some other parks where some 'undesirable' people might lurk, the Argonaut playgrounds are very safe. You will see families coming through on bicycles or people walking their dogs.
