API of Cupertino schools

FUHSD consists of the following high schools: Monta Vista, Lynbrook, Cupertino, Homestead and Fremont.

The purpose of the Academic Performance Index (API) is to measure the year-over-year growth in academic performance for California schools. The API summarizes a school's standardized test scores into a single number, which ranges from 200 to 1000. The statewide API goal is 800 for all schools; higher numbers generally indicate better performance on the tests.
