I attended this school for my 9th grade year. My school before was very good, but the classes were few. I was excited that there were quite a few classes offered at ACHS.

My son graduated from here and was very ill prepared for college. Too many dinosaur teachers. The high school district Oxnard Union has no commitment to Camarillo and justs wants their tax dollars. If you want a first rate high school education go to a Conej Valley school.

This improvement has

There are of course, teachers who need to retire and teachers who don't relate well to student, as at any school; however, Mr Lipman Principal, is invested in making this school the best it can be, and it shows! All athletes are expected to be scholars first (not instead of) and there have been great gains in the Arts program,performing and otherwise.

Camarillo High has been great to our family. I graduated in 1976 and our son and daughter in 2005 and 2008 respectively. Most of the teachers are dedicated and care about the kids. The administration is second to none and really understand students' needs and have created a positive environment.
