Context: I grew up attending Cupertino schools.

Cupertino schools are fairly well funded, but not as well funded as schools in say Palo Alto. It was my experience that in our school the best students did most of their learning outside of class as very few public school teachers could keep up with them. From what I hear, some parents would send their children to private schools because they would do this and the schools would have somewhat better mentoring, but overall I didn't see much difference in the quality of top students from either.
