This school would be much better served if teachers biases and activism were removed from the classroom. Teacher that don't push an agenda on the students are generally good.

Overall my daughter (a freshman), is enjoying the school. This school has two major problems that I have observed living in Pleasanton over ten years. The first is that some of it's support staff are incredibly rude. They have zero knowledge of customer service or any appreciation whatsoever for their clients (both students and parents). The second major problem is the spoiled rich kids that attend this school. This group can easily be identified from the other kids by their BMWs and dangerous aggressive driving when arriving and leaving the school. Staff and police should give these brats an attitude adjustment before someone is injured. This attitude undoubtedly carries over to show up in other problems at this school mentioned by others. One way to avoid these problems is to get your kid involved in a program that helps them fit in with a healthy group. God help the kids who try to transfer from another district without some background/skill (e.g. sport or music skill) that would help them do that. My daughter plays an instrument in Marching band and is loving it. Foothill has a great band program that promotes discipline and teamwork.

It is not a school that is welcoming to new students. If I could choose what high school in Pleasanton, I would have chosen Amador Valley. It is not a school you can just move into, it is the kind of school where you have to go to the middle school with the kids attending. Foothill High is run on politics.
