My kids both attend Roosevelt Middle School. It is a great school with teachers who care about the students. The principal is fantastic and has great communication with families. He is very dedicated to his students and attends so many school events, even on weekends. The families are engaged and volunteer their time for the students and the school.

I would sujest it to any one.

Our student is graduating this year and I am very appreciative for all that the school has done. Yes, the counselor was never available, the school is huge, sometimes sitting outside waiting for our student to get out, seeing the many students coming out, I realize that these teachers have a very important and surely challenging job. These young people are being prepared for their future, and many may not even really want to be in school all of the time. There are these social media challenges where some break bathrooms and do other damage to the school building, that is unfortunate and happens at schools everywhere, but I hold the parents responsible for that. Teachers especially after the pandemic have faced many challenges, making up lost time, helping those who suffered through the lockdown, I can't forget that these teachers also have a private life, also had their challenges during the lockdown. I just know our student had a good experience with online school, often leaving her room laughing about a class where they had fun doing online learning, yet the isolation weighed heavy on most of them. We send our children to school and expect so much, take it all for granted, but I thank the teachers from the bottom of my heart and hope that we as a society start to recognize how important that profession is. They are all deserving of our respect and gratitude. Thank you San Diego High IS for all you did for our student to now move on to college. She hated the AVID classes but I loved what she learned there, thank you!

I have to give this school a low rating even though my son attends. This may be his first and last year here. There is hardly any parent, principal involvement, afterschool activities (compared to the other SDHS-or even some of the other schools in the district that we visited), and it s hard to even reach anyone during the school hours. There are a few teachers who are in it to win it; but I sat in on one of my son s classes and the poor business teacher was being walked all over. How can they teach leadership skills when they can't control their class? It was hard for me to watch! This is one of the low performing schools and it shows in the leadership down to the test scores.

My son is a senior. He did the last 18 months virtually, and went back to in person class 2 weeks ago. The virtual classes were a joke, the fact that the school district doesn’t mail grades home “because of COVID-19 “ even more so. This week, my son has been home sick. I have called DAILY to report him absent, and to request assistance getting a COVID test. Every afternoon at 5:30, I receive 3 calls, one from each of the “schools” at the San Diego High campus, to report the unexcused absence. NO ONE has returned my phone calls, and the school principal has not returned my email. This has pretty much been my experience all 4 years. If you can afford private school, do not send your child to a San Diego Unified high school.
