Cordova is an incredible school. I used to be one of the people who bad mouthed CHS and thought it was some awful, ghetto school. I was wrong. I enrolled at Cordova this year as a Junior and it has been a great experience. Getting involved in the school has done so much for me. It may have a bad rep

Cordova is a wonderful school compared to some others I've been to. My mom graduated in '92 which was a huge inspiration for me to do the same. She even knew Mr. Wells!!!!!

I graduated from Cordova in '03 and now I'm sending my brother-in-law there because he was failing at his previous school and I know he'll have a better opportunity at Cordova.

I am about to finish a B.A. degree from CSUS and I owe my success to Cordova. Read less
