Summary

Blossom Hill Elementary is a K–5 school in Los Gatos, California, serving 530 students in the Los Gatos Union Elementary district. Its academic results remain well above state averages, but the most important concern is that proficiency has fallen since 2022–23, especially in math and science.

English language arts is the school’s clearest strength: 81% of students were proficient in 2025–26, compared with 49% statewide, 77% in the district, and a 72% average at nearby schools. It ranked third among itself and the 10 nearby schools, behind Marshall Lane Elementary and Daves Avenue Elementary. Math proficiency was 77%, far above the state’s 38% and about level with the district; it was also above the nearby-school average of 74%. Science is the clearest relative weakness: 65% proficiency was below the district’s 68% and the nearby average of 66%, though well above the state’s 36%.

Results have declined since 2022–23: ELA fell 4 percentage points, math 11, and science 10, even as state scores rose and Blossom Hill’s lead over the state narrowed. SchoolDigger ranks the school 290th out of 5,804 statewide, at the 95th percentile with five stars. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 24 to 1, toward the higher end among nearby schools. In 2024–25, 7% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a 14% average at nearby schools. One subgroup result stands out: SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves Multi-racial Students was at the 47th percentile in 2025–26, compared with the school’s overall 95th percentile; the available figure for 2021–22 was at the 87th percentile.
