I had a very bad experience at this school. But it was still MUCH better than my experience at neighboring Milpitas High School, the latter of which I strongly detest. Like Milpitas High School, the teachers here are ineffective. They do not teach properly. Some of the teachers and the school administrators (most notably the Vice Principal) are very favorable towards those from lower-income backgrounds. In fact, higher-income students often receive much more severe punishments than those from lower-income backgrounds for the same offense.
During my two years here I had a complete blast. Everyone is just so much fun to get to know, and there is no shortage of activities to participate in. Once you get to know your teachers it is just so much fun just to talk to them. It also is easier if you need someone to talk to. Teachers are always checking in on you socially and academically, to make sure you are okay.
Every teacher cares about the students and how they do in school. If you even have a C-, the teachers will check in with you. Their system of PLP is a great way for the students to learn independently.
The principal and vice principal are cool.
