When serving real estate buyers, the question of which school the residents of a particular home at a particular address would go to often comes up. Although I feel I know the school boundaries pretty well, I don’t like to rely on my own knowledge in case the boundaries have changed, which they occasionally do. I go online to find the answer.
The southern portion of Santa Clara County is home to two school districts: Morgan Hill Unified and Gilroy Unified. Morgan Hill’s school district covers a large area. From the MHUSD website,
“The Morgan Hill Unified School District encompasses nearly 300 square miles and serves the ethnically diverse population of Morgan Hill, San Martin, portions of San Jose, and unincorporated areas of the county. We are comprised of 15 schools: nine elementary, two middle, two high school, a continuation high school, and a community adult school as well as a Home Schooling Program.”
Gilroy Unified serves the residents of the City of Gilroy and consists of eight elementary, three middle, currently one high school with a second scheduled to open next fall, one community day alternative and one continuation high school.
