Let me start with the positive side of this school. Most of the class teachers are super nice!…read more Our child has been in this school for 5+ years and came across all the wonderful teachers. Per my child, most of the students are friendly and from good educational families. We are giving 3 stars for class teachers and their teaching skills. But there are several negatives about this school. Even though all parents knows about it we can't do nothing. We are not able to switch to another school as there are no better options at this location. Negatives: 1. They raise their monthly fees every year but they don't improve any quality to their services. My kid always complains about spider webs in the bathrooms and it's always very dirty. So, he refuses go to bathroom and holds for whole day. 2. No extra curricular activities like sports tournaments like running, soccer, basketball, table tennis or any competitive events for building children's physical and mental strengths. 3. No fun events; students should have singing and dancing, cultural events, talent show, etc. 4. No sports equipments provided to students; they could have provided at least these basic sports equipments: PingPong tables, chess boards, soccer balls, basketballs, volleyballs, etc. So, kids can have fun on recess time or after school time. We hope school administration will take necessary action work on it to improve.

If your a parent reading this, just trust the school but not too much, but if your a student then yk how things go on in this bumhaz school lol.

He started at the school in preschool, and from the very beginning, his teachers made him feel loved, safe, and supported. Miss Sipra, Miss Poonam, and Miss Vaishali were incredibly loving and kind during his preschool years. They showered him with affection and care, making every transition smooth and comfortable for him. What stood out most was how personally invested they were in his growth -- they truly understood his individual needs and helped him develop with patience, encouragement, and warmth. As he moved into Pre-K, we were equally fortunate to have Miss Sandhya and Miss Keiani guiding him. They created a nurturing environment while also helping him learn the importance of boundaries, structure, and kindness. Under their guidance, we saw our son grow leaps and bounds -- academically, emotionally, and socially. Miss Sandhya's knowledge, patience, and years of experience truly shine through in the way she teaches and connects with children. Along with Miss Keiani's warmth and encouragement, they made a wonderful team that helped our son feel confident, supported, and excited to learn every day. We will always be thankful for the positive impact these amazing teachers had on our son's early years. Their dedication, compassion, and care mean so much to our family, and we highly recommend them to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive environment for their child.

Kindergarten: Teacher Turner and assistants are always so attentive and helpful. They nurture their minds and teach on The Word every day. You can tell how much they care by how much of their time they give. 1st grade: we had to homeschool due to COVID but I know the teachers did all they could to help all Zoom parents get through the year. 2nd grade: My son started with Teacher Kathy in second grade but now it is teacher Laura and assistant. Both teacher Kathy and Teacher Laura are very caring hard working teachers. 3rd grade: he continued with Sis.Kathy and although it was a rough year for him she was always available to work with us and help him. We also had the blessing to work with Coach Adam summer of 2nd grade and all of 3rd grade. 4th grade is just starting but we know it's going to be an amazing year. They offer after school care for extra charge but they teachers are there until 5pm ish in extended care which can be so helpful on long working days. You can pay for it monthly or daily whichever you choose. School day starts at 8:15am and ends 3:15pm. They use ACE curriculum which I've learned to love. The biggest blessing has been to know my child is safe and is being taught the Word of God through wonderful caring women of God.

American High School, is the high school I attended because I live in North Fremont, specifically,…read more the Ardenwood area. Students of the following 6 Elementary Schools, Ardenwood, Forest Park, Warwick, Brookvale, Oliveira, & Patterson Elementary attend Thornton Junior High, and then finally they attend American. I started my education career at Ardenwood Elementary, then Thornton, and finally American High. First off even though the spirit of the school is lacking, it is still fun and enjoyable if you make it that way! Spirit Week for the students is one huge celebration each class celebrates for one week where their entire class creates cardboard props and put them inside/around the Rotunda to display them to everyone to see. Every year there's a different theme for each class, such as a different type of television show, board game, Disney theme, etc. During lunch, that week, each class gives a presentation/skit about their theme and try to prove their class is the best and has the most spirit!! One of the other popular events is RUSH Week, which is one week in September when clubs advertise themselves in the Rotunda during lunch. It's a time for you to learn more about all the different clubs on campus and join the ones that interest you. American High has about like 59 various different clubs for you to join. Another event would be Battle of the Boulevards, which is a Football game battle between us Eagles and our rival Huskies! The reason it's called Battle of the Boulevard, is because both American and Washington are located on Fremont Blvd, were both schools are trying to claim Fremont Blvd! (You're probably thinking, but what's so good about Fremont Blvd!? Nothing really, it's just the glory of owning it I suppose.) There are rallies at the school as well where on various Friday's, where after 6th period most of the students tend to go inside the school gymnasium and watch other fellow American High students perform dances, acts, skits, to show off their talent! If your son or daughter does not want to go inside and enjoy the rally, they have another option to stay inside the cafeteria and just hang out there with their friends. There are lots of other main events such as battle of the sexes week where each gender battles against the other in events, Eagle Nation Week, Staff Appreciation Week, International Week, and many more! Now onto the Academic side of American High. American offers many different course offerings for students to take. For Foreign Language, American offers, Mandarin, Spanish, French, and American Sign Language (ASL). Elective courses include, Architecture, Sculpture, Art, Studio Art, Photography, Web Design, Weight Training, Team Sports, Drama, Band, Choir, Guitar, Creative Writing, Public Speaking, Leadership, AVID, Parenting and Family Living, Filipino Heritage Studies, Psychology, Engineering, Law Enforcement & Administration of Justice (ROP), Marketing (ROP), Business Ownership (ROP), Culinary Arts (ROP) and many more! You also have your general courses, for Math, English, History, and of course Science. Overall, It's a pretty good school, lots of the teachers care, and it's just a great school for your student to attend.

I was told by the front office that I can visit school after it ended so that's exactly when I came. Not only did they not allow me to enter but they were extremely rude and said that my teachers don't wanna see me on a Friday evening. They also said I have no right to come back here. As alumni I have every right to do so. They also made my friend have a panic attack. This is unacceptable behaviour from high school staff who should be looking out for the children. For the sake of everyone's wellbeing they should be fired!

My child started at this school in November of 2024...when we dropped her off for her first day, we…read morewere introduced by one of the lady staff in the office. By how she looked at us, I see that we were being judged. A couple weeks goes by and our child is telling us that some of the staffs were talking to her as if she wasn't a human being. She'll come home, tell us about how they would say things that made me uncomfortable. Example: her presence was irritating them. I went up to the school one morning and told all the staffs and including the assistant principal that they better stop talking crazy to my child. Cause at home my children are disciplined. (Yes they get yelled at or talked to for their actions). There's so many times I've had to go up to the school to put these staffs in check. Wrong mama. My child doesn't like confrontations. If she feels like she's being disrespected, she's gonna let me know. There's a female (P.E) staff there that tried to twist my daughter's word when we had set a meeting up. I wanted to know what happened. There was an incident that took place with another student. This staff was a "mediator". As we were in the room, I let my daughter speak, the lady staff tried to interrupt my daughter. I told her to let my child speak. I didn't like the fact that she tried to justify what she told me and then tell my daughter different. What I won't allow is for an adult to interrupt my child when she is advocating for herself while l'm in her presence. There are a few staff that I've grown to like. If I had the chance to pull my child out and do homeschool, I would. We send our children to school to these staff(s) to teach and watch over them. Not for them to treat our children like sh!t. I don't have a problem going up to the school and give them my 2 cents. They need to work better on their attitudes... cause it stinks like sewage water.

I attended this school for both 7th and 8th grade (22-23 and 23-24 school years). It is genuinely…read morethe WORST school I have ever attended. Most of the teachers are either wayyyy too strict, rude and mean, or don't teach properly. I know a lot of people complain about the Pagans but I had Mr. Pagan for eight grade US History and as long as you followed his (kind of ridiculous) rules, the class was pretty interesting (he was really funny at times). His wife was a jerk, though. The administrators and office staff, on the other hand, are a hot mess. They don't care about the kids and there have been several incidents where they've been racist to kids and teachers. I don't really understand why you would choose to work with kids if you don't like them.....? A lot of the teachers had weird rumors about them as well (especially a certain PE teacher). If you have to attend Thornton, good luck. Grit your teeth and get through it. If you're a parent reading this, please support your kid. They're reallyyy gonna need it.
