  • Knowledge Bowl

    The Seniors were sensational in this year’s Knowledge Bowl, even defeating the PAC before teachers and administrators got a word in edgewise. The 9th-11th grade teams performed admirably too, with the 9th graders making it to the finals.
  • Crystal Art Show

    The Crystal Art Show In-Balance is currently exhibiting works from more than 60 Crystal artists in Central Park, San Mateo, near the pump house. The exhibition is open every Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 3 pm through Sunday, February 26. See the flier below, designed by Elena K ‘25, and come support our Crystal artists.
  • Snow Day

    At Crystal, we don’t think it is fair that just because we happen to be located in beautiful sunny California that students never get a free pass from class because of inclement weather.  Every year we remedy that fact by surprising students with “Snow Day” on which they are free from class and any scholastic obligations of the day. Here are some of our students enjoying this Crystal tradition.
