As a new kid who attended for a semester it’s not a bad school. The school opened my shell a bit and also depending on the people you meet their welcoming especially towards us new students creating at great student atmosphere. The admin I think could be better though. The counselors are good but I feel could try to promote more on college readiness and also try to help the students more with their classes but take advanced and AP courses as their packed with students who are their for the subject and take it seriously as well take try out the ACE Program and the new ASU Junior Academy. Sports also needs to also be taken more seriously by the admin. As well the school does lack school spirit a bit but still I would highly recommend to go in involved in every school activity you can such as clubs, dances, & games. So should you send your kid there. I would recommend yes and if the student doesn’t seem to like it look into other options but this school has a pretty good atmosphere, extra curricular activities, and classes which are slowly expanding each year it just needs to improve academically with finding and replacing some teachers, leadership, admin, and students need to get more involved.

Santa Maria is the best school for kids to go to and also the teachers are great are for what they do.The teachers also be nice and helped when you need it.I would give it 5 stars and Ms.Jealani is the best 6 grade teachers and she is the best

Fantastic school for my kids. Lots of community engagement, extra tutoring, clubs, and interventions. Awesome teachers, wonderful admin - best school in the district!
