7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter attends Salinas High. Most of the teachers are great educators. The staff is very responsive to parents concerns and the sports offered include extras like diving, mountain biking and golfing. The student population is not as diverse as I would like, but there is a decent mix of students from different social backgrounds. I have not given the school a 5/5 because of a previous year problem with a staff member that raised concerns over equity. Also, more recently I heard about a teacher having a conversation with a student that crosses professional boundaries. This is third party information that I did not witness. Overall, the teacher experiences my daughter has had have been great over the past 2 and a half years.Parent Review2y ago - Washington Middle School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHonestly, I would not take your kids here. They really don’t teach you anything. Some of the teachers are so rude. And I hate how they stress the kids out. With promotion. Because they leave big assignments. At the end of the year. And don’t even give you refunds. If you buy. Stuff for your child. At the end of the year. For the activities. But they could be an eligible. Just because of their grades. Even though sometimes. Children. Don’t understand the lectures. And are too afraid to ask for help. So that doesn’t seem fair to me. And how the system is handled. And. I have gotten my. Stuff stolen. Here. And they didn’t do anything about it. Even though it wasn’t my fault. Because it was in the locker rooms. And they don’t pay attention.Student Review1mo ago
