Our school leaders believe in JR

Cupertino is well known for its incredible schools, with top ranking elementary, middle, and high schools. De Anza is often recognized as the number one community college in the state. Yet our schools are facing severe problems, such as a plumetting enrollment rate due to fewer new families being able to afford to live here. JR is supported by the entire Foothill-De Anza School District Board, the majority of the Cupertino Union School District Board, and the entire Fremont Union High School District Board.
