There's a parking structure by the school's office and most other parking available is street parking. Since the street is a culdesac and you have to share with the residents. Parking space close to the field gets filled up quickly. The youth programs are provided with a portable toilet and there are a couple of kiosks with snacks and drinks (cash only).

So I have been holding back from writing a review about this place as I don't want other people to…read moreknow. But after coming here for such a while, I decided to do it. I do not come here for school - nor for kids - but for badminton and a great time with friends and what I would like to call my badminton family. Hah, I totally broke out in a smile while writing that. Every Friday and Saturday they have the gym open for badminton excluding some holidays. They have a schedule out front. Badminton is what a lot of people will consider very Asian BUT for your information it actually was played in European countries as well. Used to be known as Battledore and Shuttlecock and was simply two people hitting a shuttlecock backwards and forwards with a simple bat as many times as they could without allowing it to hit the ground. It was a upper class pastime in England and many European countries (Here's a site if you were interested in the brief history - http://www.bwfbadminton.org/page.aspx?id=14887). So just shedding some light on the history. Parking is pretty ample. Courts open up eventually and people play in twos against each other. Would say there are about 6 courts. If you are a beginner like me, you would want to stick around for when the court becomes free to hit the birdie around a bit. Practice makes perfect! And yes, you might want to bring a racket and mark your birdies. The courts are not as big as the badminton courts at Balboa but they are my favorite place to go on Friday and Saturday nights. If you do end up dropping by, do be respectful and make sure not to step onto the courts when a game is ongoing.

We have been going here since 2009 and we loved every moment of it. The classes are not overcrowded and the curriculum will get them ready for AP classes in high school. The school is a bit old and has been around for several decades but it brings much character. The sports programs available are great for both boys and girls like soccer, volleyball, basketball, flag football and track. The school has great festival each year during the holiday season and during the fall. The Fall festival is a one of a kind cozy festival full of performances, beer gardens, food from all nations and games for the kids to play. Overall this school has been fantastic with our two kids. We wouldn't change a single thing. We love St. Mikes.

Teachers often tell me that as long as I am in school and in class, my grades and work don't matter. I was punished with having multiple grades lowered despite doing work because I was in the hospital. Drug use and bullying is extremely common here, little is done to stop it. Kids are reckless on bikes and motorbikes. Suspension and detention policies are too loose. My entire time here, 6th to 8th, was very depressing and filled with bullying. Students can be forced to go no contact with others rather than have civil conversations. I wish I never attended.

What an amazing school! We were enrolled at Cathedral Catholic and were not pleased with a…read moremultitude of things, so we searched for a new school. Del Norte is a beautiful and academically sound high school. The leadership over this school is second to none and the teachers truly care. I'm grateful for the opportunity of my child attending this school as I truly think they work to prepare her for college. Don't get me wrong, this school isn't a cake walk, but it's apparent she will be well equipped to attend college when she walks out the doors her Senior Year. Not only is the academic program better than a private school from what we experienced, the sports program is amazing. Some strong athletes come out of this school. Great facilities, coaches and supervision over the sports program has been a wonderful experience! Love that they invest in their academic and sports programs alike! My kid has never looked back once coming to this school and absolutely thrives. Nice work and thank you. to the school administration, faculty and staff!

Common to new schools there are "growing pains" of sorts to work out. At this point, DNHS is 4 years old. So far, the administrators, student body, faculty and parents have stepped up to make this a more than "good school". If MC is better, why are so many kids from its vicinity coming to this school? Some kids coming from RB high neighborhood or even WestView and Poway high neighborhoods make the commute here. Go ahead and ask those guys "why not their area high schools?" Or do you even have to try? Seems obvious... Clearly THEY think Del Norte IS the better school.

At the time, this was a fairly new school and newly developed area so I guess the kids thought they were the sh*t or something.

We literally had to move tournaments when our director caught the judges being paid off. Their repertoire was boring and very easy. Sports that were played against them were also terrible in my experience with their sportsmanship.
