I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: my son is about to graduate with an engineering degree from a Cal State in noCal. His closest circle of friends have beat him to the punch and graduated with engineering degrees from UCSD, Berkeley, Davis, Sac and Chico. All are doing mighty fine for 20 somethings. I know, they come by our house and visit. All are products of SMHS (and all fall into the non-hispanic white category quoted, not that it matters to me).
Those who pay the extra bucks for other school districts are doing so for nothing. But hey, if they sleep better at night, that’s their right.
Us San Marconians know the real score and are perfectly content flying under the radar.
