Would Monta Vista High be a more valid comparison (it’s the “better” high school of Cupertino)? It’s a rare case of a high school with an overall API of 900 or higher. My alma mater, Campolindo High, up in Moraga, is another rare example at 908 =).

Still, I don’t think Cupertino’s schools are too much better. I’m sure the quality of education is stellar at all of these schools. The majority of high schools in California are well under 800, or even 700, sadly. Although I’ve heard that the “after-school programs” are more interesting in Westview or Rancho Bernardo high schools, despite their slightly lower API scores.
