SJCA has failed me many times, whether that was them disrespecting me or them not taking action. SJCA has a long repeated history of horrible mistakes, 3 members of my family including me attended there and some was good and some was bad. The one good thing about this school is the curriculum, it is one of the best and most high standard curriculums. However, there are way too many bad experiences I have gained from there. At this school they focus way too much on kids chewing gum and forgetting there belt or other small things. There are no words to describe who they are picking as staff and they cant control one single thing outside of their curriculum. This school is not fit to be k-12 yet and they need to work on perfecting their other grades before even thinking about adding high school. Another problem is that they are constantly cutting funding for student activities. At most school events (which there are practically none compared to other schools) there are many things that are missing due to them cutting funding, including food and drinks to purchase. SJCA needs a lesson taught to them before they keep taking away the American high school experience for teenagers. I would LOVE to see this school improve, but they are too focused on the small things and they don't realize what kids are missing when at this school. There are many problems that this school has but my main concern is: "Are the students getting a Jr. High/High School experience that the average one gets." The answer is no, and the school needs to realize the memories that could be made here. SJCA has a GREAT curriculum but they are still having a hard time figuring out what it takes to give their students a good high school experience. School is not just about learning and it is NOT just about having fun, there should be a even balance that makes students feel involved, excepted and respected. My final ask of you SJCA is to give the students what the average student gets. I know they put in a TON of effort to get good grades trust me I know, but I also know looking back on it that there is so much more than just getting your education, there is friendships and memories to be made so let those things happen. read more
