  Stratford American private school is a GOOD school, however this great mall location isn't. Some others aren't welcome here such as lack of diversity amongst sports and clubs etc for children which they are separated based on skill/comprehension level. If you look at the directory you will know its majority care is. It is also legal for this review to be written and shouldn't be removed by yelp when its legal. This campus is also a MAZE hence difficult for parents to pick up my child and find where the classrooms and facility is in such a confusing compact narrow design. However I am giving this an extra star of 3 instead of 2 due to faculty and parents event where they give out free and delicious garlic nawn bread on one event for parents to eat, other than that. There's San Jose or Santa Clara stratford and less confusing, is much better if you want your child of others to be welcome by staff and diversity of staff etc instead of others.

  I would like to share a note of appreciation for the teachers in room 109. The teachers have done a great job with my son and I appreciate their effort. My son has become more expressive and expresses his feelings at home. His vocabulary has improved a lot. The teachers also shared very nice insights to prepare Madhukar for Kindergarten during the parent teacher meeting.

  I am thrilled to share my positive experience with Stradford School, particularly regarding their Summer camp program. My daughter has been attending the half-day Summer camp, and it has been an enriching and enjoyable experience for her. We are very impressed with the detailed communication between the school and us. We receive regular weekly updates, pictures, and newsletters regarding the camps from Ms.Sahni. The admins are always very welcoming and helpful.One of the standout aspects of the Summer camp has been the exceptional teacher, Ms. Mandal.

From the pre-k years to the upcoming transition to Grade 1, the teachers at Stradford School have played a crucial role in shaping my daughter's development, both academically and behaviorally. Miss Simar, Mr. Nayar, and Miss Fazal have gone above and beyond in ensuring my daughter's well-being and progress. Their passion for teaching, combined with their caring nature, has created a positive and supportive classroom environment.Beyond the classroom, Stradford School offers incredible field trips that enhance the educational experience. I am impressed by the variety of field trips and the focus on celebrating different cultures. From Chinese New Year to Holi, Diwali, 4th of July, and Cinco de Mayo, the school ensures that students have the opportunity to learn about and appreciate diverse traditions. This exposure to various cultures promotes acceptance, inclusivity, and a well-rounded understanding of the world.In conclusion, I cannot speak highly enough of Stradford School.

  I had the pleasure of sending my child to the Summer Camp at Stratford Milpitas this summer, and I cannot express enough how thrilled I am with the entire experience. From start to finish, it was an exceptional program that left a lasting positive impression on my child and our family.First and foremost, Mrs. Mandal (Room 116) who reaches my child's class is outstanding. She is not only highly qualified and knowledgeable but also incredibly caring and attentive. Her dedication to ensuring the well-being and happiness of each child was evident in every interaction. She created a nurturing and supportive environment that made my child feel safe, comfortable, and excited to attend the camp every day. I was impressed with the thoughtfulness put into designing the camp's curriculum. Each activity was not only fun but also educational, providing valuable learning experiences for the campers. Whether it was learning new skills, fostering teamwork, or building confidence, the camp managed to strike a perfect balance between entertainment and personal growth.I get a weekly report of my child's work at the end of the week and was impressed with the progress made in the short term.The facilities at Stratford Milpitas were top-notch. The camp had spacious and well-maintained grounds, with excellent amenities and equipment for all the activities. The safety protocols and procedures put in place by the camp were meticulous, providing peace of mind for parents like myself.The extended care staff Ms.Carolyn, Mr.Jeremiah & Ms.Joy are awesome. They take good care of kids and keep them engaged.Lastly, the communication from Stratford's administration ( Mrs. Gagandeep) was outstanding. They kept us well-informed about upcoming events, daily schedules, and any important updates. Their responsiveness and willingness to address any concerns or questions were greatly appreciated and contributed to the overall positive experience.

  First of all many thanks to all the school staff and teachers for all your efforts keeping our children safe, well and all the lessons being taught to them every day whilst in school. It's very much appreciated.My daughter has been going to this Stratford for 2 years now. She calls Ms. Naomi and Ms. Swapna as her mommy. My words cannot explain how good and amazing they are in loving, teaching and taking care of these little ones. My daughter gets upset, if I show up to pick her up early. Ms Naomi is a teacher from her heart and you cannot ask for a better teacher. If Ms. Swapna is off, she is in my child's prayer that night for her to be back soon in the class soon. As my daughter says, Ms. Swapna always does the right thing. My daughter says she loves the teachers "to infinity & beyond".Ms. Michelle with her warm smile and friendly talks makes everything so easy and trustworthy. Ms. Jennifer is super nice and my daughter loves her to bits. You cannot ask for a better science teacher....In my daughters words. - "Ms Alyssa is super cool scientist and she cannot miss even one class of hers". My daughter wants to play piano just like Ms Voon and loves music because of her. How can I forget Ms. Deepali and her warm welcoming smile. I love this school to bits and its family for us now.I love the way teachers put so much of effort in arranging the Winter/Spring program and turn it into a memory for life. Their curriculum is the best and the portfolio that we get at the end of the school is a treasure for life.

  My daughter has been at Stratford for 2 years. It was her first school in her childhood. I thought it might be hard for her, however, she has adopted the school routine quickly and learned a lot more than I expected. I am very proud of what she has accomplished. Of course, I have to give credit to the Stratford Milpitas Management Team and responsible teachers. They tried hard to provide kids with a comfortable and joyful environment to learn and grow. My daughter has also been telling me that she wants to continue to school here every year!

  For nearly two years, my daughter (Persis) has been attending this school, and I'm delighted with the numerous fun and meaningful events the school organizes in addition to regular classes (big shout out to Enterprising Leadership Team ). The pickup and drop-off process is well-organized and efficient. I'm particularly grateful that on rainy days, each teacher accompanies each child with an umbrella. We are thoroughly satisfied with the K teachers, Mrs. Azevedo and Mrs. Vyas, as well as the 1st-grade teacher, Ms. Kanemori, who exhibit kindness, patience, and helpfulness towards both students and parents.

  My daughter has been coming to Milpitas-Great mall campus for over 3 years, now in grade-1 and we are super content with the curriculum, the delivery of the subject-matter and time-energy put by the class teacher - Mrs Mandal. She comes across as a compassionate, disciplined and well-organized teacher. She takes immense joy in teaching kids. In the first trimester of grade-1, my daughter struggled a little bit with phonics, comprehending the readings and handwriting. Mrs Mandal and I quickly paired as a team to see how we can make major improvements. She took extra efforts on ensuring that my daughter is able to understand the readings and able to interpret the message, likewise Mrs Mandal went an extra mile to make her "Hand-print" legit. I am truly amazed to see how my daughter has progressed over the past 7 months, ever since we started school. Also other activities such as Winter program and Science needs a lot of prep work at the teachers end, Mrs Mandal executed it all without a hitch. We feel blessed to be in a company of such supportive and caring teacher who is willing to work as a team to ensure my child succeeds in the class.

  Stratford School is a highly regarded institution that is dedicated to providing quality education to its students. The school prides itself on its focus on academic excellence, character development, and creativity, and it appears that the teachers at the school are truly invested in their students' success.One of the key factors that contributes to the success of any school is the level of engagement and involvement from parents, and it seems like your family has been very supportive of your children's education. It's always encouraging to see parents taking an active role in their children's academic journey.Overall, our family has had a great experience with Stratford School.

  My son has been going to Stratford for 5 years now (Across 2 campuses Sunnyvale - DeAnza and Milpitas - Great Mall) and it has been a great experience. Stratford's curriculum is perfectly balanced between sports, academics, and arts/music. It has been a seamless and excellent transition for us to the Milpitas campus. Ms. Deepali and Ms. Greer have done a great job in building a family-friendly community. They are practical, pragmatic, and accommodating by considering real-life account situations.His teachers, Ms. Sahni (2nd grade) and Ms. Subodh (3rd Grade) this year, are nothing but outstanding and exemplary. Kids listen to them, reciprocate them, and have fun while learning. For parents they are always available over email / in person for any questions/doubts that we have.Overall I highly recommend Stratford Milpitas school and look forward to more year over here for my son.Pranav

  My daughter, who is in grade one now, is a bit on the hyper side and could not fit with Challenger's rigid, almost military like, learning environment. But once I moved her to Startford she has blossomed.. and did really well in kindergarten and is also now doing fine as first grader. I give credit to the teachers and administrators of this school who welcomed us with open arms from day one.. as I had to yank her out in the middle of the school year, last year.
