The district, which enrolls students from Cupertino, San Jose, Sunnyvale, Saratoga and Santa Clara, is switching from at-large elections - where residents can vote for any candidate - to electing area-based board members. This means the school district will split into five areas balanced by census data, where voters elect a trustee within their area. The goal is to increase representation in areas that haven't had a trustee seat in years.
'My concern is that the trustee areas (are) actually dividing our community,' Shuping Liu, a community member, said at the board meeting.
