Unfortunately, her leadership style was and continues to be a significant cloud over my high school experience and the current students. Instead of creating a supportive environment, she is consistently rude and seems to take pride in bringing down student spirits. She has a habit of targeting students and escalating minor, insignificant issues into major disciplinary actions. Her presence is a constant source of stress that significantly dampened what should have been a positive high school experience. The school deserves leadership that actually cares about student well being.

Most of the funding only funds the robotics and cinema teams. Teachers do not teach and fail students on purpose and the administration has not done anything to fix the problem since they don't hear anyone out. We told the counselors about the issues they're having with teachers but they don't care at all and never do anything about it. I told my teachers before hand that I had a competition to go to and needed extra time to do the homework, I finished it and showed it to them and they said that apparently it's too late, it was impossible to finish all the homework they assigned, plus the extra homework they gave in one day so they gave me a zero. Kortoshian and Landisi ruined this school and they don't know how to run a school. They give you a ton of homework and tests which take away all your free time. No one deserves to go to this school.

    I was originally intending for this to be a humorous review, but Andy O. has done a fine job…read moreoutlining the funnier points of the mess that is Anderson W. Clark Magnet High School. Clark touts recognition at the state and national levels for being a top school, and likes to promote its GUSD-leading API ranking, but let's be honest here, the bar is low. There are a few staff members and teachers who care about and do their jobs well, but on the whole, Clark is a case study on academic mismanagement and why many students in the American educational system succeed in spite of the schools they attend rather than because of them. As I sit here at 27 years of age writing this, I'm fairly happy with where I am in my life. I graduated from a top university and work at a job I love, which just happens to be with one of the most successful companies in history. I'm not trying to come off sounding like a tool here, but I want to make it clear that my success in these two areas commonly associated with a quality high school education came as a result of my own hard work, talent, and determination rather than anything Clark can take credit for. Thank you, Clark, for the 'innovative' curriculum that ended up being completely misaligned with the first-year prerequisites at nearly every U.S. university, the lack of any *quality* extracurricular activities, and your Draconian code-of-conduct which sought to stifle any sort of self-expression and created a culture hell-bent on breeding America's next group of mindless followers rather than its future innovators, thinkers, and leaders. On a more personal note, thanks for the 4 or 5 (?) suspensions as well. Like Andy Oh, I guess I too am a gangster. This review is getting too long and angsty already, so I think I'll end here. I will leave you with one last funnier memory, though. During one of its first years in operation, Clark was extremely excited to field a team for the district-wide academic bowl. Expectations were set high since, you know, Clark was full of nothing but the brightest students being coached by the best staff. End result? Last place finish.

    I went to Discovery all of high school. I loved high school, not because of this school. I wouldn't…read moresend my kid here at all. First and foremost, bullying is completely tolerated and handled as a joke. Teachers will literally HEAR people making fun of others, and don't send anyone to the office or hold them accountable. There was a "DP confessions page" made on instagram, where people would post rude comments and everything about one another. I found out someone had called me a slut and made fun of my dad passing away, and I confronted her (mind you, we only TALKED, never fought.) and I got blamed for it. Teachers play major favorites. Coaches especially. Coach Willy is the worst coach I have EVER had. He is nice to you for your freshman year, and then completely flips on you. He favors who he wants, no matter if they're good at whatever sport he coaches, and disregards the rest. The principal and everyone favors whoever they like. This one girl in particular, who I won't name, is favored by damn near every staff member even though she's always out of class ditching, hiding in the lockeroom for an entire class period, being out of dress code, etc. All because she was favored by the principal. Teachers act like they're still in high school and gossip with their students. The only reason this school even gets ONE star is because of the few teachers that actually care about teaching their students. Mr. Hagler, Mr. Flores, Ms. Han, Ms. Newby, Ms. Hemen, Mr. Curry, and Ms. B are the only teachers that don't play favorites (atleast that I've seen), and do their best to make sure students understand their work. Ms. Bagoyan didn't teach at all. She never truly grades anyone's assignments. She never helped us with work if we needed it. Her room is foul and smells like mold. She has a fish tank from my friend's experiment from 2 years ago that she has NOT cleaned and still has mold in it. I'm majoring in biological sciences at UCLA, no thanks to her. I had to study biology and chemistry at home because she never taught any of us anything. As for the office staff, Ms. A is a really good counselor and can work with almost any student. She is a really good person and anyone could tell. Student council is a major shit show now, it used to be structured, on schedule, and efficient when Mr. Hagler and Ms. Miller ran it, but now it's just complete unorganized because Dr. Smith , the old principal, couldn't handle students advocating for themselves, and she handed it off to Ms. Marquita, who is nice, but isn't organized. I have a lot of good memories at this school, but I wouldn't recommend sending your child here. Sincerely, someone who spent 4 years in this shit show.

The staff play major favorites. if you're not one of the popular or "preppy" kids, you're basically ignored. They don't take action when serious stuff happens either. My friends told me about students smacking girls on the butt or even doing things in the Den, and nothing was done about it. They also completely ruined student council after taking it from Mr. Hagler and Mr. Miller, who actually knew what they were doing and cared about the students. Bullying and making fun of people still gets overlooked, and it feels like no one in charge really cares anymore. Dr. Smith, the principal, doesn't do much and just has Tony Sanchez handle everything. She even made comments about students needing to "speak English because it's America," which is honestly just racist and disappointing. Ms. Romero acts like she's still in high school herself and clearly favors the basketball boys and popular girls , it's weird and unprofessional. The only reason this isn't a one-star review is because some teachers there genuinely care, like Mr. Hagler, Ms. Newby, Ms. Han, and Mr. Flores. They're amazing and deserve better leadership. But the only chemistry teacher, Ms. Bagoyan, apparently doesn't teach much, lets her class get gross, and literally uses ChatGPT for assignments. If you're thinking about sending your kid here, I'd say don't, unless they're already popular. The school's leadership has gone downhill fast.
