[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sf poster here. To OP if you are SE Asian and want to find similar the South Bay seems to have more SE Asian but East Bay does have some Asian population. It won’t be uncommon for your kids to find mirrors at parochial schools around the Bay Area.  There are not really magnet schools in Marin, SF has charter schools, a few magnets in high school, there is Lowell (similar in some ways to TJ but since Covid has become lottery instead of testing in). Many highly rated public schools in SV, like a lot of publics there are 2 tracks, one is the AP route, going on to extremely competitive 4 year schools.  I think a lot of your worries about schools in the Bay Area are not entirely true, we have 2 nieces that teach in Fairfax county public schools that have views considered very extreme by a lot of my teacher friends here, like not offering algebra in middle school and not having gifted and talented programs. Hopefully you join a great company out here that grows and worst case scenario you network and can easily find a new postion if you need to. [/quote]
OP is on an HlB visa, so it's not that easy to jump around.

Closer in SV (Fremont, SJ,  Cupertino, etc..)  has a large Indian population, but OP can't afford close in.

Op will have to suck it up if they want to move to SV.   [/quote]
