I have 2 alumni and 1 currently enrolled at Eastlake. As part of the Sweetwater Unified school district, this school has Compact for Success which propels the 4 year attendees a guaranteed acceptance to SDSU as long as you meet requirements. Outside applicants without Compact Program Partnership with SDSU are hovering at 4.0+ GPAs requirement as an incoming freshman. Once you hit the college bound trajectory, you will realize how important it is for the Eastlake Curriculum. Eastlake offers the one of most AP classes which allows many graduates to be able to complete college in 3. Side by Side comparison to smaller/ Private schools can not even compare to the amount and diversity of the Eastlake AP classes. Unique to Eastlake is Japanese and the Dual Immersion Program, which many have started from kinder and continued into 12th grade. The school is very diverse and offers many clubs and sports, but what I find unique is the equal opportunity for girls in sports and artistic expression. Look up all the CIF State championships and you will see Eastlake at the top over many sports which is a testament to the admin and parent support of the community. If you are seeking the next steps for University which is a very competitive realm where test scores are optional, your child's academics along with accomplishments in their High School "resume" will be very important and when you are at a school where you can find a club or start a club, a school like Eastlake will allow the leadership. The Parent Association is like no other where the leaders are very connected in the community with new businesses and support to allow the funds for Eastlake School Spirit. As of 2025-26 the school is going through a major renovation which improvements which included a new football field, new weight room, new landscaping, updated library, updated Performing Arts, and parking. If your goal is for your student to have tools to prepare them for college, they will be more than ready. It starts with Eastlake Future Titian night as they welcome the 8th graders and it continues with the organized meetings from Southwest College, SDSU, and UCSD coming to visit the school.If you had to imagine a school with lots of school Spirit, Friday night Football games, Spirit Week, Robotics, and every Sport imaginable, this school is fantastic. The ASB is top notch. My kids had/have wonderful experiences academically & athletically, filled with supportive teachers.

I have only been to the campus a handful of times, and I dont understand why the school is so filthy. We need staff and management to set better examples for our students. How can you communicate that you care for your students if they show up to a filthy campus every day.

My daughter with special needs goes to this school. For the entire year they didn’t have sped teacher, my daughter always comes home very dirty. I wish I can go to the school to check how my daughter is doing in this school but parents are not allowed because of Covid-19. They did not follow my daughters IEP because of some system trouble even though we submitted her printed IEP because it is a requirement upon enrollment. I just can’t wait to be transferred next year, this is far the worst elementary school in Chula Vista, maybe its because of Covid, or they are not a good school for special needs I don’t really know I just hope no parent will experience this kind of school for their special needs children. Time is very crucial when it comes to special needs children. I feel like she wasted the whole year without progress.
