A vehicle accident involving an SCHS student occurred in front of the school on Benton Street near the crosswalk at Moraga Street at around 2:30 pm.

The student, who was riding a motorcycle, was being bandaged for his injuries by a police officer after the accident. 

This intersection has been the location of many vehicle accidents in the past, with nine injuries in the last five years, according to Gina McWilliam, who manages records for the Santa Clara Police Department.

Police declined to comment because the accident involved a minor, and also because the investigation is ongoing.
