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 AverageI would rate my time at this school a three out of ten because the academic parts of this school isnt bad, it is the students that give this school a bad reputation school will also rarely provide help for bulling.Student Review7y ago
