This was my second time visiting this school. My first visit was during the football season to…read morewatch a football game. My most recent visit was to watch my daughter's high school band perform in the school auditorium. The auditorium appeared to be older, yet it was well-maintained, very comfortable, and the band's sound carried well. The view of the stage from any seat in the auditorium was clear. The staff and student volunteers were amazing, friendly, and welcoming. Parking is available in any one of the multiple parking lots adjacent to the auditorium.

Both of my daughters attend Valencia. The first graduated in 2016. We can share from our personal…read moreexperience that the IB/Val Tech programs are the best in the state. Valencia consistently has the highest number of IB graduates and about 90+% of students pass their AP exams. We've met some of the most caring and knowledgeable teachers and counselors. VHS offers many sports, clubs, band and creative programs for students to join and make friends. Valencia offers many opportunities for growth for my children. We are thankful for the many wonderful programs and people we've met. There is no one perfect high school out there. Valencia represents real-world diversity, rigor and opportunities to help our children prepare for their college, careers, and life. I'd highly recommend VHS to any student who is ready to take on new experiences, and be academically challenged. We live in a district with 4 excellent high schools. If you'd like to learn more about the academies offered at each HS, check out the Showcases or call the school and ask for a personal tour. Best of luck!

This review is based on my own experience in this school. All of my teachers have been accepting of…read moremy rowdy behavior all these years, and they are, quite simply put, good at teaching. They know when to work, but also know when it is acceptable for play. Some teachers are more strict than others, but they are all really fun. I have not met a single teacher here that was not outrageously awesome I their own way. I think that they all deserve their own review. You know what? I can make that happen! I will now review all of my teachers that I have had over the years! Mrs. Jeffrey (first grade)- a real bubbly person. Mrs. Brooks (second grade)- got me through a confusing year. Times tables. Yikes! Mrs. Herman (third grade)- would look cool in a leather jacket Mrs. Brimmage (fourth grade)- She used a lot of accents. Quite the show! Mrs. Daniel (fifth grade)- is stern, but you get to do really cool stuff! Mrs. Suzuki (sixth grade)- you can see the kindness in her eyes. I really liked all of these teachers. It's a shame to go

This review is based on my experience and MY EXPERIENCE ONLY!…read more I took my time to really reflect on what I was going to write about this school! I decided to wait until I pulled my kids out to be as blunt and honest as I can without pointing out any one individual and also because I didn't want any retaliation from the one particular teacher! The school itself is nice and clean but that's about it! The parking situation is a nightmare! To pick up and drop off your kids is horrible! The streets become a tiny gridlock! The residents around the surrounding area cannot come or go for about an hour in the AM then again in the PM! The office and teaching staff is really nice... all except one! It might be that they all know each other on a personal level that the professional side of their job is not performed how it should be! I had no choice I had to enroll my kids in this school but as soon as I could I transfered them out! If you are new to the area... Do your research on the teachers! Ask questions! Ask Questions!! ASK QUESTIONS!!! Feel them out! If you get blank soulless stares go with your gut feeling! Believe your child if they come home and tell you the teacher doesn't want to help or ignores the questions asked! It was a horrible school year! When it should have been a memorable year! On a side note: There are no after school programs offered. There is NO 6th Grade Promotion Ceremony! The Halloween parade consists of walking around the parking lot once! One thing I did like was the Christmas Celebration they have! Also shout out to the Third grade teachers! THEY ARE GREAT but there are much more negatives than positives overall!

Troy High School is a top rated, public school located across the street from Cal State Fullerton…read more The homes around the school are really nice... My son had a basketball tournament here and it is has been one of the nicer high schools to play on. Tournaments are very expensive and the parking at high schools are usually free. They have several divided basketball gyms and they serve Chik-Fil-a at the games.

As a class of 2028 parent, I've been impressed by the school's impact on my son. From football and…read morebasketball to preparing for lacrosse, he's embraced the brotherhood that defines Servite. He often shares how the teachers understand how to teach boys and how that same sense of brotherhood on the field is reflected in the classroom. The balance of structure and freedom at Servite helps boys thrive academically and socially. Whether in sports, the classroom, or cheering in the Asylum, it's clear Servite is shaping my son into a confident, faith-filled young man.

Great school. Amazing staff. They have afterschool tutoring. And the kids are good.read more

Class of 2025 student here (Junior as of writing this review)…read more Academics are rigorous but fair. The teacher quality is varied, but most teachers (I took mostly AP and Honors) are fair and motivated. Student organizations (clubs, teams, ASB) vary, some being well organized, and some being poorly organized (it's just what happens when you put students in charge of something). School events are nice too, HOCO and Prom are overly expensive though (Rowland has their homecoming for ONLY $20, ours was ~$80) The staff are helpful, I went to the office 15+ times in Sophomore year because my mom sent me to school with the flu, and the cold. The office administration were understanding and dealt with all situations well. Counselors are helpful. Fights rarely break out. School is a mix between two majority races - Hispanic and Asian. Security does their job well, and the school has procedures in case of emergency. In the 2022-23 school year, a false shooter call forced the school to lockdown procedures. This situation was rapidly taken care of. Not gonna lie, our sports teams aren't the best (except Badminton, they're really good). The STEM pathways in the school are great. School lunch improved drastically in the last few years (it's also free). Would give a 5 star but our campus isn't in optimal shape. Restrooms smell terrible. The bottom floor boys restroom had its stall door stolen as a result of the "devious lick" trend in 2021. The boys restroom up stairs always smells like weed and raspberries (vapes).

the people here are rude, me and some classmates visited the school as a field trip and they…read morecouldn't even pay the lunch voucher fee THEY gave us. We had to pay 9 extra bucks while they covered 3.23.

Despite the many joys I personally had here with my peers and professors as an undergraduate…read morestudent, I cannot recommend this school to anyone who wishes to set themselves up for success. There is a high administrative turnover which leads to discombobulated employees running around like headless chickens. Good luck if you run into any serious student life or academic issues as both the business office and the Dean, Xenia, bring shame to this school. As a current high school teacher I cannot recommend this school with good conscious which saddens me as a graduate from the class of 2020. Save your money for an institution that you can rest assured they are invested in YOUR personal success not staying afloat due to low enrollment.

I went to see a football game at South El Monte High School in South El Monte, CA on 10/20/2017…read more I've been there many times before. Entry to the game was $7.00, a program was $5.00 and the parking was free. The South El Monte Eagles defeated the visiting Rosemead Panthers by a close score of 28-27. It was a fun game to watch (Rosemead recovered three onside kicks). Plus, I took photos.

Liana Cadena is the principal of Los Lomos Early Learning School and should be ashamed of herself…read more She escalated a situation between a mother and her autistic son who was having a meltdown through attempting to prioritize where the mother parked while her son was actively having a meltdown. She threatened to call the police and even brought out her phone to record and escalate the situation which traumatized her son!! What is important is a child and their well being and a principal deciding that would be a good moment to scold a mother on where she parked instead of comforting one of her students is ridiculous. Bring your child anywhere else!! If this type of interaction happened in front of parents I cannot imagine what happens when parents aren't around. Parents have enough to deal with and Liana adding fuel to the fire was extremely unprofessional!!
