Sun-drenched Ponderosa Park provides a lovely setting in the Silicon Valley with its well-established homes perched on beautifully-manicured lawns. But there's more to this neighborhood than its pretty surroundings. Ponderosa Park is bordered by two major roadways -- El Camino Real and the Lawrence Expressway -- for fast commutes to nearby San Jose, just 11 miles southeast. At its heart, the community park that shares the neighborhood's name provides a gathering place for residents with its picnic areas, playground, and basketball, volleyball, and tennis courts.
Golfers appreciate having Sunken Gardens Golf Course right in the neighborhood, while shoppers enjoy the stores and restaurants that line El Camino Real. Football fans will love having Levi's Stadium -- home of the San Francisco 49ers -- only about four miles northeast. Adventurers will appreciate being just a short drive from the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the Redwoods, and the Pacific Ocean.

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.
