Campbell Union High, CA - District Data

Original Research by School Decision on Campbell Union High

Campbell Union High School District serves about 8,600 students across four comprehensive high schools in the southern San Jose metro area: Boynton, Del Mar, Prospect, Westmont, Leigh, and Branham. The district's enrollment spans Campbell, Los Gatos, Saratoga, Santa Clara, and neighborhoods throughout San Jose.

On state assessments, the district shows uneven performance across subjects. English language arts proficiency stands modestly above half of students, but mathematics and science proficiency each reach just under half. Performance data reflects only the most recent test year, so trends are not available. For context within Santa Clara County's districts, the district's chronic absenteeism rate falls above the county median, which a parent may want to explore further with individual schools, since attendance patterns can vary substantially school to school.

The district's student body is diverse. Hispanic students represent a substantial portion of enrollment, followed by white students and Asian students. Black, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander, and American Indian and Alaska Native students represent smaller shares. Detailed data on students with IEPs or English learners was not available, so a parent would want to ask schools directly about support services and the scale of those programs.

The housing market served by the district spans a wide range. Homes in Saratoga and some Los Gatos neighborhoods command premium prices, while Campbell and portions of San Jose offer substantially lower values. Rental housing varies similarly: Saratoga rents are high, while Campbell and some San Jose areas are more moderate. Mortgage costs significantly exceed rental costs across most of the district's service area, making affordability a major factor for families. The district sits in one of California's most expensive regions, where housing costs consume a large share of household income.

The district completed a significant fiscal change in the policy realm. In November, voters approved a general obligation bond to address aging facilities, upgrade classrooms and science labs, modernize technology, and improve security and accessibility. This bond carries a property-tax increase that will extend for years, so it represents a material cost consideration for homeowners in the district. The district also renewed a parcel tax that had been in place, which continues to fund operations. Together these funding measures reflect community investment in facilities and programs, but they also mean district families carry ongoing local tax obligations beyond state and federal education funding.

The district's per-pupil spending falls in the middle-to-lower range compared to other Santa Clara County districts, suggesting the bond and parcel-tax revenue serve to bridge a funding gap rather than place the district at the top of spending levels county-wide.

The district does not currently report graduation rates, AP course breadth, or program details in available data, so a parent should contact individual schools to understand what career pathways, advanced coursework, and support services are available. Campbell Union's schools serve a geographically and economically mixed community, with housing diversity that may mean peers come from very different backgrounds and family circumstances. That peer environment and the specific academic offerings of each high school within the district would be important to evaluate school by school.
