It easy to blame the teachers as to why Mt.Eden is a bad school. Parents need to keep in mind that class are surpassing class size, funding is decreasing and yet teachers are expected to produce brilliant students? Of course teachers are stressed, their lessons can't even begin to deal with real issues

This year I will be graduating from a 4-yr university and applying to schools for a masters program. At Mt.Eden I was not the top of my class and received straight A's. Its a students choice to want to go to class and do hw. I believe my parents were a major factor to my academic success. Parents need to fight the state to change the schools, not point fingers at the teachers. Read less

Both my son and daughter were exposed to many things at this school such as gangs, drugs, and bullying. The teachers could care less and parents are not involved. I became so distant to my teenage kids that I was worried they wouldn't graduate. This school has a lot of bad influences and not enough role

I am a parent of a student who recently graduated from Mt. Eden High School . To parents of students attending this school, please watch your child. There are a lot of staff in this school who care less about the education of students. I am not sure what goes on in this school, but sometimes as a parent

I really feel that the public school is not improve enough and that students are getting lost in the system if parents don't step up and follow their child until graduation. Mt. Eden HS needs lots of improvements when it comes to the educational success of our students. Parent of a 2008 graduate Read less

I am a proud parent of two Mt. Eden graduates both now at UC's. Through the years I have met excellent teachers and my kids have experienced an outstanding AP program.

Badminton and tennis are great. I think the school could use more school spirit between the students and faculty and unite as a whole. A parent group must be formed to help solidify the communication gap between the parents and students.
