Some parents asked me to list a few private college prep high schools in bay area. Here are some:

• Bellarmine, San Jose
• Harker, San Jose
• St. Francis, Mountain View
• Mitty, San Jose
• Saint Lawrence Academy, Santa Clara
• BASIS, San Jose
• Oakwood High School, Morgan Hill

To help get into these High Schools, there are high school placement preparation agencies like SASO- HSPT.

Of course, there are popular public high schools like Cupertino High or Lynbrook High.
