I graduated from CHS, class of 2004 and I loved it. I grew up in Coronado and all of their schools are the best.

CHS has been a great challenge for my children. Many teachers are movitated and go the extra mile, even if they aren't paid a comparable wage. They lost a good handful of quality teachers last year to retirement and those moving on. AP classes are way too crowded. Sports of every kind offered. Counselors

CoSA brings in a large number of inter-district tranfers and corresponding additional state funding, but the effect has been to significantly weaken arts opportunities for the average student. One example is a band program that receives virtually no state funding and was decimated by the emergence of CoSA. A second example is that most/all lead parts in the annual school play are filled by CoSA students before any auditions are held for the rest of the student body. Read less
