Azusa High School is in the middle of a low income area, yet, the band director has developed a top 5 marching band, wind ensemble, and jazz band. For this and many other reasons, I believe AHS is great!

As a new graduate of AHS, I am proud to rate it as a 4-star school. Every teacher and every counselor I encountered throughout my years cared and were incredibly involved with each student; some even remember the generations of families that have attended. The years of experience of the professors only
... Read more reinforces their love for our school and the great kids that attend. Although Azusa may be IN PART 'economicaly disadvantaged',there are certainly kids from affluent areas that decide to attend because of the smaller classes, the tranquil and joyous environment and wonderful educational and extracurricular programs. Many of my friends went on to Ivy League schools and other very prestigious universities, even under veterinary programs. I believe this may seem as much for the school if compared to the statistics, but as a student I promise you will not regret sending your child to Azusa High School. Read less

Azusa High School is great. I am a graduate and hopefully someday my child will be too. I can't think of a better city and school to raise my child in. Anyway, learning starts at home. Get involved in your kids education and don't blame the school or faculty. High school students are almost young
... Read more adults already. If they're not excited or passionate about learning and their futures than that's the fault of the home. High School is a time and place to stop making excuses and rise to your potential. For those that do, it doesn't matter which school you go to. All that matters is how much education you seize from those offering it. Read less

The Azusa School is very poor teaching academics. The teacher did not know how to use different teaching strategies. Teacher should know that each students can learn. Other teacher do help the students when needed.

I think azusa high is a very poor school and doesn't offer anything to studens, if you want the very best for your child, you would not send them to azusa, you can look at azusa from outside and tell it's poor, the district is poor and so is the city of azusa!

I am the sibling of a student at Azusa High. My baby sister graduates this month. She's spent her last four years at this school & I don't think I, or she, would've been happier anywhere else. The teachers (all of them) are warm & sensitive to the everyday concerns of our adolescents today. The are

I'd like to commend one of the teachers in particular, Mr. Lewis, drama & arts teacher. Never have I met a teacher with more genuine interest, in each & every one of his students, than this man himself. He has a style that is unique, an ear that is always open & a big shoulder for those tears of frustration or confusion that sometimes arrive. Thank you, Mr. Lewis, for being you. Read less

Azusa High School has been my home away from home. It has its much needed updates, here and there, but I have been very happy with my teachers and most of the materials they've provided. Sometimes the general student body can be lacking of school spirit, but it's probably a trend. Regardless, if more
