My daughter is a freshman at COHS this year, and unfortunately this experience has been nothing but problems. I understand teenagers make mistakes, but the way this school handles situations is extremely frustrating. I constantly receive calls, emails, TalkingPoints messages, and notifications for every little thing my daughter supposedly does -- not looking forward in class, she can't look down, she's put in a group for a group project but can't talk or use her computer for references, being late, being on her phone, etc. One teacher allows music, but then my daughter gets in trouble for being on her phone at the same time. The communication is inconsistent and overwhelming. What's even more frustrating is the attendance issues. I receive notifications about tardies and absences, and when I call to clarify or correct them, the office acts like it's a simple attendance correction. Later I find out there were even more absences or tardies I was never notified about in the first place. The school is very quick to point out every flaw or mistake students make, but never acknowledges anything positive they do or explains what THEY are doing to help students improve. I made sure to hear both sides from the teachers and from my daughter and honestly, the teachers never admitted what they may have done wrong. My daughter was more honest about the situation than the adults were. Once I started holding staff accountable and speaking up as a parent, attitudes suddenly changed and they started treating her differently. The administration has also been disappointing. I spoke directly with the principal looking for support, and instead of helping, I was told he had "more important priorities" and would call me back. He never did. That says a lot about how concerns from parents and students are handled. I could go on and on. This environment is not supportive. Students need accountability, but they also need support, fairness, and communication from adults who are supposed to help them succeed. Even though this is a newer school, I had much higher hopes for my daughter's freshman year experience. Unfortunately, it has been nothing but stressful and disappointing. Before enrolling your child into this school, I strongly recommend reading reviews and speaking with other parents first. Communication from staff feels more focused on punishment and constant criticism rather than support or helping students succeed. Parents deserve honesty, follow-through, and staff who are willing to work with families instead of making them feel ignored. read more

I am only referring to the performance theater. It is large and well kept. The only downside is this entire area has no reception. So if you inside the building waiting for other members of your party to sit as a group it will be hard to send them a message. The restrooms have over 10 stalls not like other school facilities. Pro tip: there is ample parking and the facility is located right by their field. read more

Their performing arts center is one of a kind and this is only a high school! There is plenty of seating and it is set up in theater seating so there really isn't a bad seat. The stage is large so pretty awesome productions are put on here. I am thoroughly impressed by this performing arts center. I would easily mistaken this place for a professional center. read more

For a school that is only about 10 years old, their facilities are sorely lacking or they choose to spend their money on frivolous items. For example, their stadium lights change colors when they score a touch down, but the sound system sucks so bad that Charlie Brown's teacher is easier to understand. And apparently, they trust their own spectators so little, that even adults from the opposing team can't cross over to the other side for concessions. Maybe if they let away team spectators cross over, they could afford to fix the stadium sound system. read more

I went here as a freshmen (2022-2023) and sophomore (2023-2024) and lemme tell you, from an athletics standpoint this school is a joke. Coaches can NOT coach at all (basketball) and it is very political. I wouldn't recommend any athlete to come to this school since year after year, good athletes are ruined by the programs at this school. You talk to anyone who goes here they'll say that this school is terrible at every sport and they're transferring. As far as education goes, there's a lot of teachers who can't teach and are terrible. I've had a lot of bad encounters with my teachers because they don't wanna do their job. The people who work in the office and the principal and vice principal (Ms. Grady) are terrible at their job and also very rude. If i could give this place 0 stars I honestly would. read more

This is for the football stadium / football game. Though I have heard great things about the school itself as well. The stadium is on the cookie cutter side, as are most of the newer schools in Elk Grove (and elsewhere for that matter). That being said it's done right. Well laid out, quality construction and a really nice looking synthetic field. Metal bleachers mean my stadium chair makes the trip as well. The PA system is nice and the staff was very friendly. Parking was a bit of a hassle but I realize this was a game with an unusually large number of attendees. The concessions looked nice but I didn't indulge. The grounds were well patrolled by school staff and the PD. No doubt a quality venue for a high school football game. read more

Not really a good school to go to. The administration lacks communication, and it appears to have a lot of internal issues.

The teachers say they are trying to help you not stress but yet they LOAD on the homework and it's way to much to do and extremely stressful now my grades are only going down, whenever I try to catch up they keep giving more and more work read more

I just want this be known that the annual Trigg Track Meet is a joke this year. They got way too many volunteers and is overcrowding the field and that most of them are not taking the competition seriously. Most of them are out there goofing around. The tunnel is a joke and extremely unsafe for the runners. I had seen accidents happened at the tunnel in the past years . There were rumors that a runner ran only 3 laps but was accidently identified as 4 and was made to run through the tunnel to finish the race and win the 1st place. Another runner who finished 1st was recorded at 8 minute but the 10th finisher finished at around 6 minutes. To earn respect for this race and from the parents, they need to get rid of the tunnel and the goofy vonlunteers. read more

Went to this school and wouldn't recommend this to anyone. The staff and teachers are rude and explain horrible. The school is new and beautiful only because of the dealers which are their sponsors. All the students in the school say that they want to leave next year. They have a horrible parking system; it is very hard to get out of the school. At first I thought this school was unique and had classes that my school didn't have but I was mistaken. The Drivers Ed barely helps you pass the permit test. The teacher just gives you worksheets and you complete them. Afterwards he doesn't even correct them. He just checks if you done them. To get in the culinary class you need to take the health and nutrition class and then only take the culinary class. The staff always shows attitude and never respects the students. Next, the students cuss and talk about how they smoke weed on the weekend. It is awful. I never noticed this at my previous school. Wouldn't recommend anyone to go to this school. Also, the culinary arts class is very dirty. Food is everywhere and the students hair are out. People tend to even reserve tables to eat. read more
