GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I was in sequoia pathway academy from junior High all the way to my senior year . The school is decent. It started out amazing then loosing the good staff, it went down hill from there . The funding is bad . There is no clubs or activities. Some sports get more funding then other sports . The lunch is horrible . Many times it's usually burnt or just looks unpleasant. Some staff is better than others. I would recommend this school if you wanted a small school feel and little learning but if you wanted your kid to have a real high school experience with lots of people, clubs, and good programs. Do not take them to pathway.

I have been attending Sequoia Pathway Academy for going on five years now. The campus gave me a warm welcome going into it and we have a tight nit family there. The school is a good fit for all children especially those who are seeking a more personal experience with relationships with the peers and staff as a school family. The community and atmosphere of this academic institution will most definitely be for a student who likes to have a memorable education platform.

Administration has caused this school to go from a great school to a failing school in just a few years. My son has been at Pathway for 8 years and we are looking at transferring him to a better school, where the administration works with the teachers instead of intimidating them. Edkey needs to get...

Extremely disappointed with this school. We are now faced with pulling our children mid year and homeschooling until next year or suffering out the remaining months.
