East Palo Alto is actually a slum that was perniciously excluded from the resources of Palo Alto for decades. Only recently were the residents permitted to access the better PA schools and more easily cross the barrier into Palo Alto.

The above is just interesting trivia, from what I understand Palo Alto schools have always been good.

To be clear: I totally believe the Palo Alto schools are good. But lots of places --- really, a whole lot of places, have fantastic public K-12 schools. In fact, as long as you're willing to settle in a suburb, pretty much every major metro area in the country does.
