Welcome to Fabulous Forest Hill School!
Community, compassion, and collaboration, infuse the commitment to excellence evident at Forest Hill School. An omnipresent sense of community is a vital part of the Forest Hill culture with staff, students, and parents dedicated to an exceptional educational experience that promotes academic, social, and emotional success for all our students. Volunteers form a key component in the school’s success, including supporting literacy intervention programs as well as maintaining technology.
Serving students from Campbell and San Jose, Forest Hill is home to over 600 students from preschool to fifth grade, including five Special Day classes. Despite its growth in numbers, the school population remains very stable. Forest Hill has vigorously maintained an Academic Performance Index (API) in the mid to high 800's for several years with a score of 880 this year!
Our school's mission and greatest strengths come from a highly trained staff and an exceptional educational partnership with the community that is deeply committed to equity and excellence for all our students. With a child-centered learning environment and strong team leadership, we are truly dedicated to everyone using their hearts and minds well.
