Open Quote Bubb Elementary has changed a lot since I attended school there, yet still contains the same charm. I attended school there from 1999 to 2005 and could not have asked for a better experience. I remember almost all of my teachers and the life lessons they taught us. Bubb brought the community together in such a magnificent way and has given me amazing memories to cherish. I met my lifelong best friends there and am truly grateful for the school. Anyone in the Mountain View, CA area knows how great of an elementary school Bubb really is. 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.
