Like many districts in the Bay Area, San Jose’s East Side Union High School District is struggling to retain its teachers and staff members.

As housing costs skyrocket and non-affluent members of the Bay Area continue to get pushed to the fringes, teachers and district employees are forced to live farther away from the schools they work in, endure longer commutes or find jobs elsewhere where housing is more affordable.
