Don't let people say that there aren't cliques at Santa Su. There are. they just aren't cheerleaders and jocks and science kids. But it still is a pretty good school - for those people interested in dance or theater or technology. Especially technology. Unfortunately, because of it's size, the academics
... Read more portion of Santa Su is lacking just a little. True, we have some of the best teachers in the city, but because we have such small enrollment numbers, we can only have one, maybe two of each AP or Honors class, which does create schedual conflicts. And of course, it doesn't really feel like a real high school. There's no sports, there's no pep rallies, there's very little school spirit. And being on a middle school campus does make it feel even more like middle school part two. Read less

As a previous student of Santa Susana High, I believe this school tops them all. Every student who attends is accepted for who they are. There are many clubs & activities for everyone to be involved. The students are involved as well as the parents. I couldnt have asked for a better High School Education.
... Read more I graduated as School President in 2000. I am so pround of the milestones Santa Su has accomplished since I helped establish this school when it first opened. It has come a long way from the 'choosing the colors & mascot days' & I am proud of this school. I know my fellow classmates feel the same. You don't just get an education, you learn principles that help you the rest of your life & gain life long friends and mentors. I know when the time comes for my son to attend, this is his school!

The students are open and enthusiastic, and the teachers are brilliant. There are no cliques, and the students' creativity is obvious everywhere. Don't miss out.

Santa Susana seemed like just a high school, but it is far from ti. I am a ninth grader, and I have to say it is the best school I have ever attended.

One of the best schools I have ever attended. I moved from England a while ago and attended Royal & Simi High. In my personal opinion Santa Su is way cooler. We don't have much of a bully problem and kids are very accepting, many of them are too focused on their future or just busy being themselves and
