I like Cupertino in that it has decent athletic facilities and even better academic facilities. In my 2 years here, I have nothing to complain about those 2 things. However, as I enter my junior year, I realize that the school has done nothing to help with getting ready for college, whether it be what one would need, the application process, etc.

Cupertino High School is a very academic-centered school. Many students who attend it later go on to attend higher education in the form of college, and the courses at the school reflect this. Many AP or college-difficulty classes are present, and students are encouraged to take these classes.
