The principal clearly works hard to create a positive environment for students, and most of our daughter’s teachers have been engaged and genuinely invested in student success.Our biggest concern has been communication and the school’s handling of significant disruptions. Our daughter has had frequent absences due to illness, and we have found that fewer than half of her teachers consistently respond to emails, post assignments and updates in Google Classroom, or answer inquiries through ParentVUE or StudentVUE. This has made it difficult for her to stay current with assignments and has forced her to fight the system to avoid falling behind.The most serious issue involved her advanced math class. The teacher was injured and absent for several months. During that time, assignments were rarely entered, requests for make-up work went unanswered, and students across multiple classes appear to have lost substantial academic progress. Counseling support was essentially nonexistent, and school leadership made no attempt to communicate a plan or provide meaningful support.In our experience, the school performs well when dealing with routine situations, but communication and accountability break down when more significant problems arise. For families who value true partnership, consistent communication, and strong follow-through, you will likely be disappointed in this school. Based on our experience, if a stronger alternative were available, we would seriously consider transferring our daughter.

The school has gone downhill in the last 5 years after the former long time principal left. There are not good boundaries for kids and there are consistent recurring issues like theft from kids backpacks that the school ignores and never addresses with the parents. A lot of the staff has turned over as they have hired Spanish teachers and the staff at the school seems inexperienced.

Great school! Both the sports and the academics are unmatched in North County San Diego! I would highly recommend!
