I enjoyed my time here. The teachers were amazing and set me up for success in college: I graduated with my master's with a 4.0 GPA. I also loved the waterpolo and swim program when I was there as well. read more

Outside of a few very amazing teachers who truly care about the students, the administration is absurd and they will only look at your child as another student. This school district is amazing and we had nothing but positive experiences until entering RHS. Could not be more elated to be done with graduation. My younger child will definitely be going to Whitney due to this experience. After speaking with other parents and families this was their sentiment as well. Thank you to the teachers who did truly make a difference with their caring hearts, communication, and student support. read more

2 weeks into this school my daughter was targeted and bullied. Instead of taking it up with the school we switched schools. This school is just going down hill. Wouldn't recommend. read more

So thrilled we got away from this toxic school and entire district. My son got into an expeditionary style learning school and is now an honors student and was accepted into the honors college at SOU. He's graduating with a 4.5. Goes to show how a caring learning environment with interested and involved teachers and positive leadership makes a world of difference. This is the best FU to the Rocklin HS ever. read more

We had a HORRIBLE experience at this school. Unless you are "wealthy" parents (who can afford to sue... literally) they treat you like an idiot. Thank God some are in the position to do so. The school resource officer has more compassion and caring then all the administrative personnel combined. They are here to collect the paychecks for their highly over paid positions and pensions and nothing else. Glad my taxes are going to your RV resort and not the education of our youth. You should feel proud. read more

Teachers are great Sports program is decent. Special Ed Program.......no comment. Administration, also no comment. Mr. Papas is a good Assistant Principal. read more

I HATE IT HERE SO MUCH! DO NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE!! The staff don't attend you in a good mood, the students hate it here and wish death upon themselves everyday and no it's not just because of school but because it's the worst environment. The district itself is irresponsible and always put kids in danger. All they care about are their boys and their athletic teams and how good they look to the public eye, this school might have a 10/10 but in reality I runs below the scale. They don't take covid serious and I have a father with cancer who will die if catches covid, all I'm asking is for you to put yourself in my shoes. It doesn't take every kid into account and it's very few students in which they do, and it most likely won't be yours. read more

I spent one year here; my senior year. Due to their graduation requirements, I was one of the only seniors who was taking 8 classes(my previous high school required I think 220 units to graduate, whereas RHS required 240 or so). PROS: I took some of your regular classes, such as English, Physics, Econ, Government, etc. What's really cool is that this school had a broad offering of classes - my electives that year were Broadcasting, photography, Film, and digital art. It also has a variety of AP offerings, including Spanish(my 8th class). But what good are these classes if you don't have someone knowledgeable teaching them? Well, I didn't have that problem here. Of the 9 teachers I had, I really liked 8 of them, and I know that ratio is pretty common all over the campus. You get a good education, I gotta say. CONS: Let's be real: this is Rocklin. If you're not working out on your steroids or street racing or listening to cruddy music, you're not gonna fit in. I had my groups of friends, but for the most part I didn't mesh well with the general crowd. I said that the teachers were really good, however the administration is not. I mean, if the Third Reich was still around, some of those admins would be perfect to run it. So, not only are they insane, but they're very over protective to a fault. I remember there was a scheduled minimum day and school was to be let out at 12 or something. However, they don't want you to go, so they had some motivational video to show after lunch or some jazz. So, to go with the originally scheduled minimum day, you needed to bring a signed note from your parents saying that yes, my student can leave early like you knuckleheads said he could. And man, when I went to turn that note in the guy was like "OH NO! YOU GOTTA HAVE THE DATE NEXT TO THE SIGNATURE! OH NO!!!!" and he sent me away. Wouldn't take the note. Seriously? Wow. So I crossed out where the original date was and wrote it next to my parents' sig, stood in line and turned it in. durr. Thanks for wasting 4 minutes of my life. Oh yeah, I got in trouble for bringing a glass bottle of green soda to school. Because a bottle of green soda is considered a weapon. Yep. Oh yeah, how come during the bomb threat, the field that they had all 2000 students standing on was the last place they checked? So, I graduated. I had a great GPA. But I really don't look back on this school with warm thoughts. The teachers I do, but that's about it. read more

As a previous student at Rocklin High School, still in high school, I feel the admin and Counseling department could use work. As a freshman at Rocklin High School I struggled to keep up with work that was given to me. I ended up stressing about school everyday and it caused problems with my family because I could not keep up with getting the work and no help when I asked for it. As a result of stressing about my academics and family I got a lot or anxiety and depression. I got into a really bad spot and ended up coming to school overwhelmed and felt like I was gonna physically hurt myself(not to mention Suicide rates at rocklin high in 2017 were high)and I ended up in the office after a friend told them what I have been feeling and I was left in the hands of the councilors. I ended up refusing to talk to them because I thought my many visits to the office about my stress and depression from were some what enough calls for help. I got emitted to a mental hospital after they suggested I go before coming back to rocklin so I was "fixed" or what she meant to say was helped. If I was to say anything about there student mental health awareness is they could use a lot of help from Lincoln high school (my current school) read more

Great school and great teachers. My wife went here and loved her experience. It's fun to meet the teachers that are still here that remember her. My kids have been able to participate in some sports run by the girl's sports teams and it has been fun. read more

mr ruby is such an amazing and heartfelt teacher, i had him for journalism last semester and i still come and visit him. he is such a big part of my life and he is way more than a teacher. he is passionate about his job and is so genuine to all his students. i have had amazing talks with him, he has helped me with so much this school year. he honestly needs a raise, he goes above and beyond with everything he does. thank you ruby for everything! read more

i won't give 5 stars as the school itself needs work but mr.ruby is the greatest teacher i've had. he really is a saint. if you have the chance to have him as a teacher or even have the chance to have a conversation with him it will guarantee you a smile. truly an underrated teacher not only for how he teaches but his work. if anyone from rocklin high school is seeing this or has power in the school district give this man a raise and promote him read more

This might be a great high school, but it sounds like there is a nut running the HR Dept.

So i graduated 4 years ago. Not a big fan of RHS in general. the students are as STUCK UP as can be, they are fake, and the teachers are amazing. Living on you Own was the best class ever. read more

I have mixed emotions about this school. It has excellent academics and excellent sports programs. Unfortunately though, being here I have never felt so judged in my life. Not by students, but by staff. Being a graduate, and having a younger sibling here I have had many issues with being able to pick her up early for doctors appointments ect. (Even though I am above the age of 18, and on her emergency card.) I have completely givin up on even trying. The amount of judgment and disrespect I was treated with is unacceptable. I fully understand and even appreciate the rules of being able to pick up a student, but there is no need to be disrespectful and judgmental. I was so embarrassed, and in shock at how rudely I was treated, I left in tears. That is not acceptable! The attendance staff needs to be spoken to about the way they treat people, Mrs. Pruitt in particular. I hope their poor additudes do not reflect the rest of the staff, because they have some truly amazing teachers. read more

This is the worst school ever, anyone sending their kids here should send them elsewhere. I graduated last year and I had the worst experience, I was always being judge by the staff and students since the majority are white people. I'm a Latino and I felt so out of place like I didn't belong and the staff wasn't much help read more

I'm currently a student at RHS and the staff as well as the students are completely horrible. Specifically the administration. I've had issues with several teachers degrading me and calling me names so I went to switch out of the classes (at the beginning of the year while others were still getting their requested schedule changes that were unnecessary) so I talked to my counselor about it and she said she had to talk to Mr. Pappas about it and he never did anything about it. I requested the change for a good reason. Teachers were calling me stupid and making fun of me and I told the admin and they did nothing. The counseling department is also horrible. The only counselor who is at all competent is Mr. Wirth. Mrs. Follis is also an amazing, caring woman who always does the best for the students she talks to but in the counseling office she is surrounded by people who have no idea what they're doing. Mrs. Schaefer is the new counselor for sophomores and she's absolutely terrible. When students sit in the office and cry she either completely ignores them or forces them back to class. When you try to talk to her all you get is a "that must be really tough for you" or "just breathe through it and it will all be ok". The academics at the school are not good either. Half the teachers throw you a book in Spanish and then 2 days later give you a test on it without any real explaining. Unless you're a student who enjoys being put down by the teachers and staff at your school , rocklin isn't for you. read more

This is a great school. My daughter was a freshman and is excited about going back to school for her sophomore year. Our experience here has been nothing but good. There is a lot of homework, but it's high school. Everyone we've come in contact with here has been helpful and willing to go that extra mile. Way to go Rocklin! read more
