This school is very disappointing. The teachers can't even teach right and get mad and yell too…read moremuch. Mr. Gold is one of the worst teachers that I've heard of. He gives the students work but doesn't even teach them how to do it and expects them to just magically know all of it. This school also has way too much trash on the field and also is pretty boring. Too many fights go on at this school and the teachers need some improvement. Please improve.

My son had a volleyball tournament at Montebello HS on Saturday, 1/25/26. This review is solely for…read morethe gym. Thought the set up of the gym was ok. The spectators had to sit upstairs which is ok but the bleachers and floors were just dirty. There were cups, leftover food and chip bags everywhere. We had to pay to watch the game, it would have been nice if the staff cleaned and cleared out the mess before the game started. The restroom were clean, which was nice. Also, bc we were seated upstairs, some elderly members and others with mobility challenges had a difficult time getting up there. It would have been nice if there was an elevator or special seats on the bottom floor. There was also snack available and the staff were friendly. Plenty of parking available.

The interior of the school is disgusting! One of the dirtiest schools I've ever seen.

Maybe La Merced messed me up in the head more than I give it credit for, but it was still good times..

This place was the overall cause of a lot of my childhood trauma. Everyday I was put down by the…read morelikes of Rosalie Marquez (who is fortunately retired), and Eric Lozano. I could always tell by the looks on their faces and the way they treated me, that they thought I was useless. The worst part about it is they made me feel like I would've been treated the same way regardless of what school I went to in the future. They were wrong. I wasn't the problem. I wasn't a perfect student but no kid deserves to be treated like they're an idiot. I went to CSHM high school from 9-12 grade and for the first time in my life I actually had some teachers that treated me with respect and I went from a D-F student at SBS to a solid B student at CSHM. I would not recommend any parent send their kids here. It's not worth it.

Physically the school has had a ton of improvements and gets better every year. One of the teacher is so passionate he created his own scholarship in his teaching field. How often do you hear about that type of thing happening? The faculty really cares. I don't think I've ever been at a school where the school gets better every year. I'm looking forward to next year and seeing what improvements they make.

The Best Bingo Experience in Town--With a Heart!…read more I absolutely love coming here for Bingo! They offer the cheapest buy-ins with the most generous payouts I've seen. The layout is perfect--never congested, with a comfortable "two people per table" setup. The customer service is top-notch, and the volunteers are incredibly courteous. Support a Good Cause One of the best parts about playing here is knowing that all proceeds go toward a great cause. It's a win-win: you get to have an amazing time with the chance to take home some cash, all while supporting meaningful work in our community. The Management A huge shout-out to Paul, who manages the event. He is truly the best! Unlike other places, Paul focuses on the players' happiness rather than just the bottom line. He's professional, approachable, and always listens to feedback with a positive attitude. The Schedule: * Tuesdays: Starts at 6:30 PM. * Monthly Special: "Strip Night" (typically a Thursday) with massive payouts. Prizes & Safety They are incredibly generous with giveaways, including cash raffles, pull tabs, and a $1,000 "Must-Go" cover-all card. Plus, you can play with peace of mind--the parking lot is secured with guards, so you always feel safe. I highly recommend this place for a fun, stress-free night out that gives back!

It's where I found my love for animals and realized I wanted to spend my life making them look and feel their best. The teachers there inspired me to chase my passion with heart and confidence. Thanks to Vail, I didn't just find a career -- I found my purpose.

Transferring to Vail High School was not in my plans. However, if I didn't catch up on the courses…read moreI had failed I wasn't going to graduate. I was 16 years old and I was paying more attention to working and receiving a paycheck than attending school. I had preconceived stereotypes about the students and faculty at Vail High. I imagined rebellious students and unimaginative educators. I was totally wrong. My year at Vail High School taught me to look outside myself and see the people and world around me from a different prospective. Our dynamic English teacher, Miss Adele Levy, was a force of nature. She taught me about the power of speech and how important it was to value the life experiences of others. Miss Levy brought holocaust survivors to our class to speak to us about what they experienced in the concentration camps and provided us with books and films that focused on relationships between people from different backgrounds. Miss Levy taught us diversity and how important it was to value each other. When I think back to Vail High School, I remember that it is possible to overcome obstacles. More importantly, I remember life lessons that I will always carry with me.
