Which High School in Cupertino?

And what can you afford? Monta Vista High school area tends to be the most expensive. It also is the highest API score of the 5 high schools in the district at 916 (out of 1,000). Lynbrook is 2nd with 912, Homestead with 842, Cupertino High at 812 and Fremont High at 708. My suggestion would depend on your budget of course and also when your child will enter high school. If you have a 5 year old, I think the best value would be Cupertino High which has been making tremendous gains in the last decade and will compete very well with the top three very soon. If your kid is a transfering sophomore then buck up and pay for the current API score of your choice. PS - I think API scores hold very little water - tis the parents that make the kid!
