Open Quote Saratoga High School is hands down an amazing school! It's not just like any other high school, that's what I like about it. I have so much fun learning and expiriencing things I never thought I could. The teachers there are smart (of course), helpful, and funny. I am not surprised that this school is in the top best high schools in Cali! I am looking forward to next year because I know that it gets better every year! I highly recommend this high school for everyone! :) Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio
Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
