Student pathways to successful and sustainable careers continue to be front and center with the realization of each phase of the #MUSD Innovation Campus, which recently celebrated the Phase 2 completion with a September 20th ribbon-cutting ceremony. “It is thrilling to see the vision of our community becoming a model for the Global Silicon Valley,” Superintendent Cheryl Jordan said. “Through our conversations with the leaders of national manufacturing and engineering organizations such as SEMI Foundation and the Society of Women Engineers, we know that this campus will be a model for others to emulate in order to develop learners who will design and drive our future industries.” A state-of-the-art E-sports lab, recording studio, art studio, and trio of science labs are among the Phase 2 highlights of this technologically-driven MUSD Innovation Campus, a multidisciplinary learning facility available to high school students through the Calaveras Hills High School alternative program and the Milpitas High School Extension at MUSD Innovation Campus program.
