Beaumont High School is a wonderful school to be st. Though it may lack in some areas due to a dearth of funding, Beaumont does very well in preparing students for the future. A note to all, test scores on the STAR testing don't really show how good a school is. Has anyone ever considered that most students

I have observed and studied High Schools not just in this state, but nation wide and even at a global standpoint and I have seen that we are really lacking behind compared to many other schools, and with how the town is growing, one would at least hope for betterment in education, and while it is coming
... Read more slowly, i feel that it could be coming along much faster. The teachers teach very well for the most part, only a few who don't have their act together all the way. From what i have viewed of Principal Leadership, the campus could go with some reforms. For example, the rules tend to change without being shown on any document, just by word of mouth. The dress code also has many changes throughout the year, and can change from day to day with its chaos. Read less

When I went here as a junior at this school, I noticed how laid back this high school is when I went to Mission Viejo High. The difference is a huge gap of education, population, and knowledge of the people. Most people complain that more students are coming to Beaumont but, thats how it is at most places.

This isn't the past and never will be, it may repeat in some cycle of teaching. Even if it gets huge, just means you need to change your teaching style, to show to the class. The Teachers here are good but way to laid back, its not hard to pass. Its as if they want you to pass from this high school. Read less

My child was suffering of the lack of academics in Beaumont. The teachers barely assign homework and the tests are way to easy. My child was begging for more work. I had to buy her SAT books and other workbooks so she can keep up with other schools. The students in the school believe that they can easily

No effense but this school's raking is pretty low compared to other schools and getting a good G.P.A. here is nothing compared to other schools. I think the teachers need to show the students how hard it is to get into a good college before its too late for them. Read less

The teachers for the most part are Superb, especially Miss Downs,and Mr. Hakala. Mr. Wayne Hackney is definitely an asset to the school, but the school would certainly be better off all the way around without the current principal (Mrs. Norwood).

The students at Beaumont High School deserve a principal who is more hands on and more interested in them as human beings. I say let's put Mr. Hackney in there or how about Lauren Kinney. Then we could see these kids thrive! Read less
