In an effort led by Milpitas High School sophomore Vicky Tu, student representative of the Milpitas Unified School District’s Board of Education, 50 high school students were randomly selected to participate in a survey responding to revenue that could be generated through a parcel tax. During the Board of Education meeting Jan. 12, Tu shared the results of the survey, which was prepared by the Milpitas High Associated Student Body Parcel Tax Student Survey Committee. Before introducing results, Tu explained briefly why only Milpitas High students were surveyed.
