TERRIBLE school. Graduated in 2024, and it’s felt like a blessing to be out of there. The teachers are 50/50, not saying there aren’t good teachers here, but the majority aren’t great. (Some GREAT teachers there include Mrs. Ralph (Spanish), Madame Breault (French), Mr. Rosa (Math) Mr. Tran (art), a
Posted by a community member on 12/7/2025Going to this school was hell on Earth. Glad I survived the elitist attitudes, exclusion of anyone different, extreme classism, and white dominated culture. Bullying is a major issue and drug abuse was a massive problem as well when I went here. Test scores are not everything. Culture matters, and t
Posted by a community member on 2/20/2022Well-round school. Great academic. The teacher's and parents' relationship is unprecedented!
Posted by a community member on 9/19/2020In my honest opinion, this is the overall the worst high school I have ever encountered. 3000 students, and they have to share a tiny locker is the least of it.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTerrible environment full of bullying, pretentious parents and aloof administrators. The bullying was so bad that even the teachers would cry. The administration did nothing about the bad behavior from students and parents alike. Some parents were so far entrenched into the school that their children got away with terrible behavior. The facilities were beautiful but inside was a nightmare. Cannot believe what a toxic environment that is at a school that claims to have Christian values. We found the complete opposite and left this school immediately. The teachers we had were caring and sent us notes apologizing but they couldn’t do anything because the parents run this school.Parent Review1y ago - Monarch Bay Montessori Academy
