I have two students at CHS and it’s a great high school with seniors continuing on to an impressive list of colleges. They have a solid AP and honors offering, as well as career training for both college and non-college bound kids. Athletics are robust and the AD is fantastic- very involved and encourages character development as much as performance. Tons of clubs with something for everyone.

I sent my son here for 1 year. It was the worst experience ever. He is a straight A student and very sports oriented. He played Freshmen baseball for them but was never given a chance. The coach had a dad coaching freshmen baseball and the guy was a complete embarrassment to the school and a bad example for the kids. The head coach should had kept an eye on him. The head coach has his favorites who play to pay on his summer team the more you pay the more you play kind of team which is a conflict of interest. When my son transferred to TCC he excelled and is now in college making straight A's as a freshmen and taking engineering courses and making A's in Calc 3. They knew nothing about my son at Carlsbad and didn't really care that they were loosing a straight A student and are more concerned about their football team. This school is a joke all public schools should be shutdown and ran like a business. Their job is to educate our students not doctorate them into a failed society but teach them how to thrive and be creative and successful in the world. To be thinkers not drinkers.

Three of my children have gone to Carlsbad High School. They have all had a great experience. It's a big school, but there is something for everyone. Tons of clubs, great assortment of athletics, high ranking football team. They also have tennis, diving, swimming, waterpolo, lacrosse, dance and cheerleading, as well as surfing and skateboarding classes. There are tons of AP options for accelerated students, as well as an excellent IEP program. The teachers are connected with the student body and overall, very communicative with the parents. The Debate program has continued to rank in the top schools in the state and nationwide. Highly recommend.

Let me just say there's a reason why I, as well as many others, have switched to a charter school.The programs are nice but I can find better elsewhere and I have.
