Referred to as Tino. Rivals are Monta Vista High
School and Lynbrook. Not rated as high as the other 2 academically, but is definitely better all-around. They play MV every year in the helmet game to determine the shittier football team. Has somewhat lower concentration of asians, less competitive and sheltered, and more diverse in that it has more non-asian
people than MV and lynbrook. Kids still live for grades and snakes will backstab you to get into a better
college.
Fed from 2 middle schools, Lawson(Cupertino) and Hyde(SJ/Santa
Clara), both very different.
Football is dominated by Hyde kids while the hard AP classes are dominated by Lawson kids. Walk into a AP Calc BC or AP Physics class, and you can count the number of
white/hispanic kids w/ 1 finger.
Types of people:
1) Smart, nerdy kids who study and get mostly A's and generally do STEM
2) Few insane geniuses who've been coding since 2nd grade and make things that are supposed to solve cancer and you know they're going to Stanford
3)
Asian posers who go around like they're fuckbois and hot shit, but are actually soft af
4) Dumb football players and stoners and the
ratchet/thotty girls
5) Fobby ELD kids who can barely speak English
6) The rest (very few left)
It's got the most happening around it, being 2 blocks away from the new Apple HQ and Main St is the hangout spot. Most kids have nothing better to do than study, play video games, get boba, and smoke
weed and go to Donut Wheel.
Cupertino
high school kid 1: What are you doing this weekend bro?
Tino
kid 2: Nothing much, just have to study for my 5 AP classes and play LoL with my friend. You?
Kid 1: That's lit. We might to go to Portal Park to smoke up then hit Donut Wheel.
Kid 2: Do you think joining Key Club will help me get into Stanford?
Kid 1: Only if you get President bro. But you are only taking 5 APs, you need at least 7 more if you want a
chance...
