Friends of Lowell members, who are also Lowell Alumni Association board members, “are both litigious and focused on preserving Lowell [High School]’s status quo" and have moved $250k in a potential litigation fund to sue SFUSD.

Friends of Lowell co-founder Lee Cheng, praised “brave young man” Kyle Rittenhouse upon his acquittal for shooting dead two people in Wisconsin.
