I used to attend this school. I played in the soccer team. We had the best team in many years. The coach was the best and was very well respected by the players. I remember how we had a fight during a game with El Monte. LOL, I must say we always had the talent to be great but we were never able

I am an alumni and now my sisters go there. The school keeps getting worse and worse. But if the administration and discipline do not change, it makes it hard for the teachers to do their job. They do not enfore rules on the children who need it most, but instead they choose to make an example out

But many have learned to just ignore those and keep on. Important: they do not focus on higher education. Read less

I think this school has a lot of potential and good teachers, however, I don't believe all students get the full support, guidance and direction by the admininstration and counseling departments necessary in order for a student to succeed in their education, and continue to strive for a good education.
... Read more My daughter attended this school for four years and, although, she did have support from some of her teachers and administration personnel, she had to take the initiative herself to know and become familarized with what was needed to succeed, which many students, through no fault of their own, are oblivious and/or naive to, forcing them to pass up great opportunities. Education, communication, counseling, guidance and better direction is greatly needed for all students alike in this school. As for the coaching, not all coaching is weak. Read less

Administration is very weak at people skills, teachers are tired of admin. belittling its faculty/staff, students get passed on to 'Senior Lab' to make up lost credits and the little people trying to make big changes barely go noticed or recognized for their efforts. Students have multiple opportunities
