Bullis Charter School (BCS) is a small K-8 public school that emphasizes individualized learning, hands-on projects, an enriched curriculum during school and optional after-school activities, and national best practices for academic excellence.

• Every student has Focused Learning Goals (FLGs) based on his/her unique needs, with goals ranging from core academics to developing social and organizational skills.

• Every student possesses individualized academic objectives exceeding state standards. The curriculum, teaching style, and textbooks are designed and chosen from the best practices in elementary education across the nation. We are proud that in the 2008-09 school year, Bullis Charter School achieved an API of 971. Since its inception, BCS has consistently been in the top 1% of elementary schools in the state of California.

• Every student spends time analyzing, integrating, and applying concepts to real-life learning opportunities. Compared to most schools, schoolwork includes more writing and project-based assignments, and fewer fill-in-the-blanks worksheets.

• Every student participates in science, drama, dance, vocal and instrumental music, art, and physical education. In addition, all students participate in a variety of elective classes with a focus on "educating the whole child".

• BCS offers an integrated Foreign Language Program, the first of its kind in a Los Altos public school.

• The Middle School Program began with 7th grade in Fall 2010, with 8th grade beginning Fall 2011.
