My son Benji has demonstrated exceptional growth throughout his 2nd‑grade year, and I want to formally recognize Ms. Baltazar's meaningful impact on his development. His long‑standing passion for math continued to flourish--he joined the advanced math class and earned a perfect score in the national contest. Historically, he focused primarily on subjects he enjoyed, but during the 3rd trimester he independently chose to participate in the Orator Showcase, a significant step outside his comfort zone. He practiced diligently and took feedback seriously. I attribute much of this newfound confidence to Ms. Baltazar's encouragement. By giving him a speaking role in the spring program, she helped him feel capable, valued, and willing to take on new challenges. Her support strengthened not only his academic progress but also his self‑confidence and willingness to grow. I am deeply grateful for her dedication and positive influence. read more

We have had a terrible experience with the principal and our daughter's class teachers. They lack accountability, lack empathy and compassion! Instead of helping my daughter succeed, they are blaming my 9 yr old daughter some of the teaching shortcomings! They do not share a single positive feedback and only harp on the negatives. They have done a great job at destroying a kid's morale. All wishy-washy talk. Also the principal is afraid to even hold a simple conference of parents collectively asking questions/sharing concerns in 1 setting. Instead, we are told that we will have to individually share our concerns 1-1. You tell me: Why would a principal be afraid to hold a collective parents' session? The last straw was PTA conference where the principal and 2 teachers ganged up on our 9 yr old daughter with 100% criticisms and 0% positive feedback/ensouragement in front of my wife. The whole experience left my wife & daughter in tears. I am shocked that these people get to keep their job with 0 accountability. Our 9 yr old daughter is very obedient, kind and positive. Sometimes on the shy side. Stay away from this toxic place and save your money. Our biggest regret that we enrolled our daughter in this Mipitas Corning campus. read more

Came here for a tour, they were quite welcoming. We don't live in Milpitas but wanted to keep our options open in terms of location. This location isn't too far, almost same mount of time as Osgood. Staff was very friendly and got all my questions answered. The facility is quite clean and new. read more

While still a new campus, the staff does an excellent job at upholding and inculcating Stratford culture. Specifically, there's great emphasis on STEAM learning, social skills and child development beyond traditional areas. The teachers are in-tune with children, pay good attention to, and foster their development. We've also gotten detailed and timely feedback from teachers - which is great. Overall, our kid truly enjoys this school, and we like it for the staff and students. read more

I think I left this review late. But I always think Stratford is a great school, and my kid has been preparing for the grade-3 entrance exam for months. 2 months ago we had a tour with teacher Heba. It was an very impressive experience. Heba shared a lot about how Stratford educates and develops students to grow to be more competitive! After the conversation, I believe Stratford is the right choice for my child. Heba also shared how to do home schooling to prepare for the entrance exam and my kid has made lots of progress following Heba's suggestions over the last few months. read more

V friendly and experienced staff and a very well managed school! Ms Heba met me promptly even though I arrived slightly earlier than the appointment time. read more

My son has a great experience at Stratford Corning. It's small yet warm environment. The teachers in his KG class, Mrs. Sharma and Ms. Pelayo, are caring and encouraging. My son was quite shy at the beginning of this school year. He is more talkative and confident after one semester. He gained social skills and made some good friends. The teachers also offered to work together to help on behavior problem at home, and taught my kid to be thankful. I'm very satisfied with my son's development so far. The staff are nice and warmhearted. I'm also impressed that the principal, Mrs. Saham, was able to recognize my son within 2 weeks of school, in spite of more than 100 new kindergarteners. read more

I'm really happy with Stratford Corning. The teachers and staff are dedicated, creating a great environment for both academically and socially. Especially the Headmaster, she is a really nice lady, and always with a warm smile on her face. In addition, we had a great experience with Ms. Heba during the admission process. She was really professional and knowledgeable, making everything easy and stress-free. Ms. Heba took the time to answer our questions, making us feel welcome and valued in the Stratford school community. We appreciate Ms Heba's dedication to making the admissions process at Startford Corning warm and inviting. read more

Excellent school and staff!! Our daughter is in KG & she loves it here. Our experience started with admissions where Heba was of tremendous help. Ou daughter's KG teacher Mrs. Collado is one of the best teachers and focused on the all-round development of kids. The Spanish, Music & P.E. teachers are all very good & I see significant development in my kid in all of these areas. Mrs. Saham & Mrs. Aucker manage the school very well whether it is safety, security, pick-up & drop-offs, or events. Annette at the reception is extremely helpful & prompt. The after-school clubs could improve but this is a new campus so some things are work in progress. read more

Friendly advice for parents of Stratford students: if you ordered food for your child via Choicelunch app, make sure you child receives his/her meal. When you order food in container, your child will get it. However, small individually packed food such burger or sandwich can mysteriously disappear, and staff won't inform you about it. So, your child might be hungry for more than 6 hours. Regarding this issue school staff blames company that delivers food and vice versa. At the end of the day, nobody will take responsibility, because they don't care. read more

My son has been going to Stratford on Corning Ave for almost 2 years now. I really like the location & the new infrastructure and the convenience of a spacious campus. Coming out of the pandemic, many kids were struggling to cope and my son was having his own challenges too, but the school was very supportive and was able to help him rise up. Obviously, schools are a function of teachers and he loves his 1st grade teacher. He looks forward to learning and comes back home each day in a happy mood. We personally have seen him thrive and grow. The curriculum is well-rounded and does not put a child through a burdensome schedule that discourages learning. There are some bursts of speed a couple times each year where parents have to spend more time with kids, but is not something that you cannot discuss with the teachers and find a happy path. I'm sure this is common across many Stratford schools across the Bay Area, but we really love the approachability of the teachers and the principal at this campus and have been very vocal of what we like and dislike. We like that we are being heard and appropriate actions follow-on to ensure that challenges are mitigated and Stratford Corning stays a great learning & growing environment for our son. read more

My son is now second grade and he loves his school, he is very excited to go to school every single day! His teacher Ms. Baltazar is a very loving, passionate and patient educator; she gives very good academic works during class and pays attention to students' responses make sure they fully understand, my son learns very well with her! And she also pays attention to students' emotions and feelings and the whole class is just like a happy family, that's really amazing! I do observe a obvious growing academically and mentally of my son after he came to the Corning campus. The school principal and staffs are all very professional and friendly too, I just love the positive and energetic vibes in Corning campus! read more

We are proud parents of a Stratford - Milpitas Corning student. We are very satisfied and glad we chose to send our son to this private school despite living in a school district with excellent public schools. The curriculum is well-rounded, the students get to learn a variety of subjects and the staff does a phenomenal job teaching the children advanced concepts in low-stress and caring ways. Our son is in in KG, with Mrs. Fatema Zohra and Ms. Saritha Lodha they have both taught my son many critical reading, writing and math skills. I'm frankly amazed at how much he has learned in such a short amount of time! They are also kind and make sure our son has adjusted to school with care. The school does a variety of activities to help children grow across the hard and soft-skills. Even though it's a new branch, the school is run very well. I highly recommend this school. read more

I recommend that all parents who are considering enrolling their children in Stratford visit the campus and get that first-hand experience and answer any questions you may have. This tour is unique and the school staff were very welcoming. Ms Lauren did a great tour showing the classrooms, amenities, the playground and also answered all our questions. Ms Heba walked through the school curriculum, extended programs, and even explained the next steps with timelines! Am glad we decided to tour the campus.. read more

We had our child enrolled in kindergarten (and also in K-Prep Summer classes) in Stratford Milpitas Corning Campus. It is a five-star environment, in my opinion, everything is perfect!! Excellent curriculum, highly qualified and caring teachers, an active and cooperative administration, clubs, extra-curricular activities, and many more. New building with a beautiful interior ( my kid liked that a lot and was happy about it when they moved here from his Pre-K school). If anyone in Milpitas decides to send their kid to private school, I highly recommend them to check Stratford Milpitas Corning. read more

I am thrilled to share my positive and supportive review of Stratford Milpitas Corning Campus! As a parent, I always seek the best educational opportunities for my child, and Stratford has exceeded all of my expectations. From the moment we walked through the doors, we were greeted with warmth and kindness from the staff. The atmosphere is one of inclusivity and respect for all children, and I see how that translates into the daily interactions between the teachers and students. One of the things that stood out to me the most was the individualized attention each child receives. My child is not just a number here - the teachers take the time to get to know each student on a personal level, and create a customized learning plan based on their strengths and weaknesses. Under the leadership and guidance of the class teacher (Mrs. Collado), I have seen a remarkable improvement in my child's academic abilities and confidence since starting at Stratford Milpitas Corning. Another aspect that I appreciate about the Stratford Milpitas Corning team is their commitment to a well-rounded education. Not only do they provide an excellent foundation in core subjects such as math and reading, but they also offer a wide range of extracurricular activities such as music, art, and physical education, as well as afterschool clubs like food explorers, tennis, and fairytale theatre. My child has discovered a love for reading and art that I don't think would have been possible without the opportunities provided by Stratford Milpitas Corning. The facilities are top-notch and new as well. The classrooms are bright and welcoming, and the outdoor play areas are safe and well-maintained. The staff ensures that everything is kept clean and sanitized, which has been especially important during the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, I want to emphasize how impressed I am with the communication between the school and parents. The teachers and administration are always available to answer questions or address any concerns, and they keep us informed of our child's progress on a regular basis. I feel like an active participant in my child's education, which is a great feeling as a parent. In summary, I cannot recommend Stratford Milpitas Corning highly enough. From the caring staff to the individualized attention to the well-rounded education to the excellent facilities, everything about this school is top-notch. If you are looking for a school where your child will receive a fantastic education in a nurturing environment, look no further than Stratford Milpitas Corning! read more

Heba is very friendly and very informative of the Corning campus. She answered all our questions and also provided very detailed insight to Stratford's approach to education and teaching. The teachers and staff are very welcoming and we had a great tour of the facility and structure of classrooms. We look forward to having our little one start at this campus. read more

The campus at Milpitas Corning has a very welcoming vibe. The kids looked like they were enjoying their school life here, and the few that I came across with in the hallway were well mannered. I understand this is a new campus but their restrooms looked clean from the outside (I didn't go in). For an elementary school, this was very impressive. Ms. Heba guided us through the tour and she addressed all of our concerns. I went into the tour and the meeting feeling very nervous but I was at ease when I left. She was very patient and caring. Ms. Kristen, the principal, was also very welcoming and felt like a ray of sunshine to me. I am glad that I can still meet educators like them. read more

We toured the school for my daughter's kindergarten admission. Heba accommodated us. The tour was beyond our expectation. The building is brand new and just put into use January 2022, and all the facilities and rooms are well planned and organized. Kids here all look happy and courteous, and Heba knows every kid's name from K to 5th grade! Heba also made suggestions for getting our kid ready for K, and generously shared stories from her experience. Highly recommend! read more

Heba, director of admissions, greeted us and guided us through the tour. She was very patient and thorough about the school offerings and overall Stratford philosophy. She also answered all our questions clearly. The campus itself is a bit smaller compared to greatmall campus but the number of students is also less so it doesn't really feel crowded. It is brand new campus and does feel like that. read more

Be very careful about signing up here for the Summer camps. This institution post pandemic has become just a money making institution. One of the most important point to be warned about is that the $100 non refundable deposit is per camp (ie per week). So if for some reason you signed up for 10 weeks of day camp and you had to to travel abroad then be prepared to lose 10x100 = 1000 deposit. Even if it has been a couple of weeks of enrollment, the moment they charge your credit card, kiss your heard earned money goodbye. Personally, I see this as one of the many options available for those, who want just a baby sitting service during summer. But in-terms of any real skill development I saw no improvement at all. The playground is a joke. I have seen public playgrounds much better equipped and any kind of sport training is just a bunch of kids throwing the ball around. read more

Heba was an extremely helpful person who made sure to answer all of our inquiries we had about the academics, lunch meals and extra curricular activities. We are very pleased with how clean the school is kept and the outside play area for the kids. We had a very pleasant experience thanks to Heba. read more

I met with Heba today and she was great at providing information and was very patient during the entire tour. She really took her time with the tour and it felt like she really cared for my child's entire wellbeing such as mental, social, academic, and physical. read more

My Son is already part of Stratford corning family. I happened call Ms.Heba on a question pertaining to curriculum. She was kind enough to set us for a school tour. It was a very good experience where we had a very detailed discussion on what to expect in his school experience, how to set him up for success. The conversation was helpful at various levels. I have a new level of clarity and now to know what to expect & what to be prepared for as my kid progresses through the grades. Ms.Heba went above and beyond. The staff in the school are very kind & responsive. read more

Stratford Milpitas Corning is a beautiful brand new campus with a group for amazing teachers. Have been very happy about the decision on sending our kiddo here. Today I received a special call from the computer teacher Ms. Kumar. She complimented about how great our son was doing in her class. As a parent I was so touched hearing that and it really made my day. I was even more touched by how Ms. Kumar made an extra step during her busy day to deliver the feedback to me. By seeing how happy our son is going to school everyday, it proves again we made the right decision. Also big shout-out to all the other unnamed teachers! Our 2nd kid is going to MC this coming fall and our 3rd kid is also going in 2 years. I know for sure our tuition paid is well worth it! read more

We toured the brand new and beautiful Corning campus with my daughter. Heba, the Admissions Director at the Corning location, is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and a wealth of information. The campus is beautiful with lovely classrooms and amenities. The staff are terrific. We met with Heba as well as the Principal who was generous and welcoming. We really appreciated Heba including our daughter in conversation and getting her impressions about the school and the next steps. During our tour, we met a number of students who were all happy and energetic. They greeted Heba and clearly connect with the staff very well. The older students were very welcoming, confident, and responsible. It was a wonderful experience and we cannot wait for our daughter to start there. read more

I went for a tour, small campus with a cozy atmosphere, friendly staff and teachers.

We had a great tour thanks to Ms Heba! The school was very fancy, it's brand new with design details that are super impressive - the stair handrails are friendly to kids with different heights; the event room is nice and large, so it can be used as indoor gym when weather isn't good; there's awesome shading on top of the outdoor playground; Classrooms are nice and large and clean and lovely. As an adult, I'm absolutely jealous of the kids going to this school; as a parent, I can't wait for my daughter to enjoy her time here. read more

Heba, the Director had full of energy to explain about Stratford and about the curriculum. The campus is new and the staff does an excellent job of maintaining it well. read more

My daughter is enrolled in the 2nd grade at Milpitas Corning after she attended Stratford Online Academy for over two years. Staff and teachers are friendly and helpful. It seems that all the teachers know every student's name. Every morning, when greeted by the teachers, I know my daughter will have a great day at school. That's so important! My daughter met her online Kindergarten teacher Ms. Collado again on the campus. I can tell my daughter loves her 2nd grade teacher Miss. Baltazar as well. We feel so grateful that my daughter has Miss. Baltazar as her 1st teacher when she was back to the "real" campus. Miss. Baltazar has definitely made this transition very smoothy and pleasant. She knows how to inspire the little souls and I can tell that she really loves and cares for all her students in the class. Overall, the Corning campus is a well-managed little gem and we would highly recommend this school. read more
