Crystal has been one of the best schools I've ever been to! They have excellent teachers that are always there to help you, the academics are advanced and are made to put you one step ahead of everyone else. If you can come here, do it. It's an experience you won't regret.
Warm community, however too many inexperienced, young teachers at new middle school. Very rigid, so if your student has an academic passion it will not be supported. They will have to take the same level classes regardless of where they could potentially test into. No CS until junior year--really Crystal? We live in Silicon Valley FTLOG! Math program in the middle school leaves A LOT to be desired if you have a bright, math loving/enthusiastic student.
Crystal prepares students for college!
The only major downside is that I wish that there was more racial/ethnic diversity. There are only a few African-American students, roughly 5% of the entire school population, and it can be extremely isolating. Additionally, it has also been hard for me due to the fact that I am transitioning to male and as much as the school is trying to support me and understand, I think there is still A LOT of work to be done in regards to supporting LGBT(+) students.
With that said, the academics are world-class. It definitely gives (and gave) me an advantage in testing, access to higher-level education, study skills, and essay writing.
To those who are looking to apply, the biggest advice I would give is: Don't be afraid of the cost. The school gives excellent financial aid to those who truly need it.
