GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My best parts of Cupertino High School are finding a community where I feel at home. For the earlier years of high school and the last year of middle school, I wasn't able to find a place where I felt loved. But when I was able to meet my school therapist, i was able to talk about my family situation as I lost my mom, and I learned that it was okay to talk about how I felt. Although the worst parts of Cupertino High School are probably about how competitive it is here. As someone with a lower education background, as I kept moving from school to school, at times I do feel as if I'm behind on the level I should be at. But that didn't stop me and the place that Cupertino High School is at, I learned to do dual enrollment at De Anza which helped me to overcome that feel.

School highly regarded for academics and competition. Diversity is catered to asians. Competitive sports, diverse clubs. Cafeteria menu compared to others is not bad. Academic rigor can cause stress. Mental health facility is available, counselors aren't too helpful. Teachers are highly supportive with academic success.

I have had a negative experience with the Cupertino High School's Game Development Club, which, as far as I know, belongs to Cupertino High School. If you are organizing a competition, please select competent judges who will not be rude to the participants, and be more punctual.

I went to this school and during my time the school faced a bunch of neo nazis that the school took over a week to solve, they disregarded massive events and instead give students cheap but boring events even though the school had a lot of money to make these gigantic events according to several stu...

As a student at Cupertino High School, I would value the information I am being given. I am a promising person who is also highly educated, maybe too much for just a 16-year-old going to a public high school. I tolerated criticism and performed effectively under pressure because of the teachers here...

This school was amazing for my younger brother. He had an amazing time. Of course there are some flaws but what school doesn't. There is some "bullying" here and there I guess although from what I've heard it is more of teasing. Overall it is an okay school if you are looking to move into the area.
