I recently have my kids joined this school and have had a very positive experience so far. The students are kind and welcoming, which has made it easier to adjust to the new environment. The teachers are not only nice but also very cooperative, always ready to help and support whenever needed. The principal is also very approachable and supportive. Overall, I'm happy with my experience at this school and feel it's a great place for learning and personal growth.

The pros are that they have a lot of electives and learning pathways and great opportunities for the students. The biggest con is the principal, Julie Redfield. She allows her teachers to get away with discriminatory behaviors towards students even when their are documented witnesses and the teachers own written account. Parents are not considered partners, rather she is dismissive of any concerns raised. Students with differing beliefs, medical issues, and anxiety are not accommodated.l as she does not prioritize the needs of the individual student. When educators stop caring about kids, its time to retire. Carlsbad High could be great under the right leader and with getting rid of teachers that set the example with discrimination in the classroom.

The principal demonstrates strong leadership, maintaining high standards while warmly greeting students outside the school each morning to ensure a safe and welcoming start to their day. The teachers are highly cooperative and experienced, fostering a positive and productive learning environment. The school actively involves parents in the educational journey, creating a strong partnership that enhances student growth and success.
