My son is a sophomore at San Ysidro High and he is thriving! He is taking all AP or Honors classes and has a 4.00+ gpa . This school is great, the resources available to students are beyond my expectations. The principal is very involved and cares about the success of students and the school. I feel that the class work and homework and tests my son is getting is putting him on track for university level work and I know he will be well prepared when he graduates. There are many opportunities for extracurricular activities such as sports and clubs. I get his grades daily for everything, tests, homework, and projects. Teachers are effective and staff is friendly. I’m very happy with our decision to move here.

My daughter is in special ed therel and the only reason Im giving the school 3 stars is because her teachers are awesom Ms. A ans Ms. McDonough. But my question is my step daughters school which is mar vista and many many other schools around have sports or something for special needs kids why doesnt ssh...?? They have to teach these kids like they r normal too and have to push them in sports as well and make it to where they love going to school as well. My daughters step sister is in wresling cheer and track. She came home today jazzed to tell me about their specal ed sports them have too now.

Does anybody do residency checks at this school? We had to leave Otay Ranch because we moved across the freeway. All my children have attended this school. Because of the crack down on residency checks we were unable to use someone else address and keep him there. He now attends San Ysidro high, the first thing I noticed when picking him up is all the BC plates. How is this fair? Why is this school not as strict as others? I normally don't care about this kind of thing as I think everybody is entitled to an education, but it's bs that my kid can't get into a school thats just down the road because of their residency boundary's but a kid living in another country can go to school here? And for the person who wrote about this being an economically disadvantaged community- do you realize this school is surrounded by a newer housing development and the average house is worth about $400-$500k? I think you have this school mixed up with South West or Montgomery. I live closer to Montgomery and that is a economically disadvantaged community. As far as the school itself, the staff isn't very helpful and the nurse is downright scary. Teachers seem to be alright, my sons grades have improved
