One comment about Fullerton Union High

Fullerton is a well rounded city, it's population of Latinos are 3+ generations American. For the most part, FUHS latino students are middle class suburban kids just like everyone else at the school. I am surpeised to see the english learner number so high at 18%. The diversity of FUHS also goes beyond its student population; it's educational opportunies are also diverse. A great school that doesn't get the credability it deserves.
