You should enter from the main entrance where you checkin and tell your purpose of visit, the receptionist will then direct you to the room number. We checked in to the room and a lady asked us to wait for almost 10 minutes and then took my son to another room for test. The test was between 15 to 20 minutes long with reading, writing and listening. All in all great experience.

I went to four different high schools, and this one was my favorite one…read more I had some amazing teachers including Miss Paris, Mrs. Pavlecic, Coach Freitas, and Mr. Duer. Mrs. Freitas was my first PE coach when I transferred there, and two years later, I joined her gymnastics team. She was such an amazing coach! So sad she retired after my year! Mr. Duer was my pre-calculus and calculus teacher. He taught very very well! I was able to understand everything. His practice tests helped A LOT. He always had ramen ready for his favorite students... and can't forget about the doughnuts! I had some pretty bad teachers as well including my trigonometry teacher who got fired/left. One time she made me slap myself just because I missed a question on the test. She also yelled at me one time for giggling during study time. Looking back at those times, I kind of want to giggle since it was years ago! She was such a bad teacher haha. The administration changed when I attended. Bob Moran was our new principal when I was in my junior year. He is great, and even signed my yearbook:) The one thing I did not like about the new administration was this: if we were even a second late getting to class from lunch break, we would be forced to go to a one hour detention after school. I had to go one time, but it wasn't a big deal since I used that time to do my homework. I had a lot of fun on the swim team, badminton team, and gymnastics team. Mostly everyone was nice. School spirit was high. I loved how the school gave free doughnuts to students who wore school spirit clothing on a specific day of the week. Spirit week was a BLAST. Senior week was sooo special and amazing! I will never forget the Waterworld picnic and senior cruise. Can't forget to mention the senior trip to Disneyland! What a dream come true! The school does a great job with school dances, especially prom. Junior and senior year prom were both so beautiful. Junior year prom was at the SF City Hall! So gorgeous! The school definitely needs an update though! They need new lockers for everyone! Especially full lockers for every single student. Sucks how freshmen only get a tiny box. They should replace the portables with a brand new building for lockers or classes. Overall, I'm happy I went to this high school. I made unforgettable memories here. I met some amazing people and made friendships that lasted. Last year, I even went to my best friend's wedding. She was the first friend I made at WHS. I definitely recommend this high school. The open campus lunches are amazing.

Someone get her out of this school district nowwwww

I loved the school. It gave me the high-paying job that I otherwise wouldn't have had today. It was…read morethe first school I went to where I realized that coasting on pure talent wasn't enough (and I had plenty of that, but I only need to watch how my cousins were doing in school to figure out much of a difference the environment makes). If it weren't for the sheer amount of peer pressure to do well and excel, I would have never bothered to work hard to excel and would probably be competing with high school graduates for burger-flipping jobs. I learned a really important concept while in high school: academic learning is an abstraction for success. While other reviewers complain that the narrow focus on academic excellence was technically useless, it prepared me to minimize-maximize my priorities for success. By re-abstracting the real, working world as a bunch of test-taking and BSing, it's helped me on my race towards the top. Mission is a great example of a Tiger Mother school, and I'd say that beating the excellence out of me worked wonders. It's a trial by fire, and I've suffered more than my share of breakdowns during my low points here, but overall, no pressure, no diamonds (Thanks Mr. Greene for the quote). If I weren't here, I'd just be dinosaur poop. Highlights: -Academic Challenge club (Without it, I would never be indirectly mentioned in the #National_Olympiads section in the Mission San Jose High School wiki) -Teachers: Chaney-Aiello, Geers, Geschke, Lindsey, Greene, Richards, Jaeger, Ishimine, especially Payette and Howell, you have all been the best teachers I know. Hopefully one day I will be able to pass on the light that you all have passed onto me. -Peers. I'm not going to name names, but without people to chase, I would never have started running in the first place. Let's keep trying to outcompete each in greatness in the years to come. I love a good race.

I really regret enrolling my child in this school. Before my child started. I heard so many…read morepeople say how good the school was and how excellent the students academic results were. But after four years. The reality has shown me, some teachers at this school did not give the child the support or the best possible experience. I won't know whether the principle behind teaching is supposed to be helpming students succeed. Or whather the teacher was simploy targeting the child and intentionally trying to make things as difficult as possible for them.

I can imagine the process they went through to distill the source into the most pure and clean representation. The gym looked interesting as well with jade tile work and gold trim but we were asked to leave before getting closer. Classrooms constructed w/ "post and beam". Ceilings must look amazing and higher than modern ceilings but its probably hot in summer. Great place for photography and exploring after hours.

Seems to me like the main issue that everyone is that concerned about is the office staff. They…read moreblatantly make the children they're directing their attention to feel like a problem or issue. The office staff prominently make it very hard to understand instructions and expect you to know everything the first time you're directed to do something. Another thing is that teachers need to stop letting other students pass inappropriate jokes or offensive speech just because it entertains them. Also, experiences with the counselors would feel different than you'd typically imagine it, regarding the way they perceive your problem or feelings. Not sure on how the counselors helped other students but it probably varies, I did not receive any help at all myself. Lastly, this is difficult to improve, but the lunch line situation is always horrible, no matter what they integrate. Hearing things you don't want to hear is still verbal harassment if it makes you uncomfortable. Minor roughhousing is pretty odd but people would do it in private. Next year is my final year here and I'd hope for it to be more pleasant than the last two. I'm sure there's many other issues but I don't have any coming to mind at the moment. It feels empty in the morning and quite pathetic on special event days.

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.
