Hands down- ACHS is an awesomely beautiful campus…read more.. I recall "open house," when the community was able to tour the school before classes began this past August, and I compared it to a college campus. It's equipped with EVERYTHING- including a culinary arts kitchen adjacent to the cafeteria, a huge theater and gym, beautiful sports fields and even community college classrooms in the main building. It's also a super "green" school, and apparently it's paving the way for future schools to be energy efficient as well... The problem with a bright, new school is, of course, working out the kinks. While it appears that most teachers came from schools in the neighboring vicinities for the most part, that could be both a gift and curse depending on the reputation of your child and you child's chance at a "fresh start". My husband would also say, the football team could use a more diverse staff (but the volunteering moms are AWESOME! GO WOLVES!!!). My above-average 9th grader is doing great because he's a good student and newspaper-worthy athlete, so he had a good reputation and good rapport with the middle school teachers that moved on to ACHS. It also helps that the school only has 10th and 1th graders to start, so the Freshman didn't get that underclassmen welcome from the seniors. My IEP student, 7th grader???? Now, 2012 will be interesting if the world doesn't end... I am dreading an inevitable battle with administration. AND, the school has "combined classrooms" with 2 teachers and more than 60 students. If you're an "A" student, this may not matter so much, but some kids will definitely get lost in the shuffle. : / So, all in all (as my 3rd grader would write) the school is absolutely beautiful and locally staffed with a "down home" feel tucked away in the Bay's shadow, but your child's experience will probably be unique to their needs, as with any school. TIPS: Always use the entrance on the opposite side of American Canyon Rd. because you can exit both directions. The light at American Canyon Rd. also gets REALLY crowded, so avoid it if possible. A new bus route was added specifically for students and the fare is 50 cents each ride. Oh, and GO WOLVES... and GIANTS!!
