San Jose Unified sees fewer older students return to classrooms KTVU's Maureen Naylor reports. SAN JOSE, Calif. - Students returning to the classroom are finding themselves with a lot fewer classmates around. New numbers from the South Bay's largest school district show the vast majority of older students chose to remain at home. In fact, only one in five high school students in the San Jose Unified School District opted to come back for in-person classes. At Willow Glen Middle School in San Jose, about one third of students chose to return to campus when in-person instruction started Wednesday. "On a fully enrolled year, we're right at 1300 students. Right now for in-person instruction, we're enrolled at about 460," said principal Paul Slayton.
