Take a look below at the schools in Walnut Creek. This is a widget provided by greatschools.org and is interactive so you can view the great schools in the Walnut Creek area. Most of them have ratings of 9 and 10 out of 10 points. The points are based on state school testing results.

If you are looking to buy real estate near good schools then I suggest using this widget and remembering the website greatschools.org as a future resource when searching for homes. There, you can type in any city, state or the full address of a home to see what schools are nearby and their ratings. You can read reviews from other parents and see what they have to say about certain schools.
