Resurrection School

1395 Hollenbeck Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA, 94087
Resurrection School is a Catholic elementary school located in Sunnyvale, California, in the heart of Silicon Valley. The school draws from a multi-ethnic mix of students, providing an opportunity for a Catholic education to the children of our parish and the community at large. We offer before and after-school extended care. Our curriculum supports Junior Kindergarten through eighth grade. Children enrolling in our Junior Kindergarten program must be 4 years old on or before September 1st of the school year they are applying to; and those entering Kindergarten must be 5 years old on or before November 1st for 2012, October 1st for 2013, and September 1st for 2014.  Arrangements for tours of our school can be made throughout the year. Our mission is to educate students in a Christ-centered, peace-filled, family-oriented environment, recognizing the value and uniqueness of the individual child. We follow the four pillars of a Catholic education:  Faith, Knowledge, Leadership, and Community.  We believe parents are the primary educators in the formation of their children's Christian values, and the teachers and staff of the school support, enhance and complement this role.
