Read what parents are saying about City Charter High SchoolI came to City High as a freshman that was not high school ready. I lacked basic mathematic skills. City high prepared me for college, afforded me the chance to take a courses at CCAC, and grew me into the professional I am today. The staff is caring, friendly, and focuses on student specific needs for a life after graduation. I was able to travel to Costa Rica as a City High student, having become fluent in Spanish. City High connected me with a valuable internship that allowed me to see if my career aspirations were a realistic match to my interest. The student body is very diverse. The culture encourages academic excellence. I now hold a masters degree, all of which I attribute to my time at City High.

Posted by a parent on 6/23/2020Terrible, my child is no longer going to this school......It seems like a great school in the beginning but the approach is terrible. My child is having problems graduating from another school so the only option now is a G.E.D. The Workforce Credits were great but Academics were a bust. How is a child released from school for Workforce but is failing Academically? Shouldn't Workforce be for children who have their academics together. I honestly feel like my child should have been reprimanded for not completing school work. I have heard of students having nervous breakdowns because of this school. I agree with the students, this school isn't for all children. This is a mini business school..........They are more focused on work than academics so if your child is already having problems in school behavior, mental, social, ect.... this may not be the best fit
Posted by a parent on 5/15/2017This is a very great school. I think any parent would be happy with their child attending City High.
Posted by a community member on 3/21/2015City High School made me sick, literally. The staff watched me so much and I had little freedom, then they attempted a search that was so bare and unprofessional, I did not consent. City high made my issues with anxiety two times worse, ruined months of my life, and now that someone asks me where I'm going or what I'm doing, I get high levels of stress. There are few staff that were nice and caring, the rest are incredibly rude and careless. City High is by far my worst experience in a school. This is NOT an accepting school. It was so bad, every time I think about my experience in it, I get stressed out, it permanently scarred me mentally. I do not recommend putting you're kids in city high.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a mother of a 7th grader, and I am very pleased with the education my child us receiving. The teachers and staff are excellent. They will go out of there way to make sure my child understands the work that they teaching. I love the smaller class sizes because, it allows the teachers to give the students more time with them individually. I can't see placing my child in another school.Parent Review12y ago - Prince of Peace Catholic School
