However... PARENTS BEWARE!! If your child is a victim of bullying and harassment on this campus, this school will lack follow through when it comes to implementing serious consequences to abusers. Be prepared to take your own legal action in order to protect your child. Bullies are given a slap on the hand and the victims are offered mental health support services. To add more insult to injury, if your child shares a class with their well known abuser, they will not switch the bully to a different classroom instead, they will expect the victim to change classes. Parents beware.

The only issue is the pick-up and drop-off situation--it's a complete nightmare and has apparently been a problem for years. I even requested bus for my child to avoid the chaos, but the school doesn't have enough room. The best solution? Add more buses! Not to mention parents starting work before 9am and we don't live close enough for my son to walk. Adding more buses would help a ton!

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Damien High School. One of the things that stands out…read moremost is seeing how our sons are growing into young men who confidently meet and greet others with a firm handshake, make eye contact, speak clearly, and carry themselves with pride and respect. Damien isn't an easy path, but if students put in the effort, the school gives it right back through its support, opportunities, and commitment to their growth. The atmosphere is incredible, with a true sense of brotherhood and camaraderie that makes students feel connected and supported. As a faith-driven school, Damien does an outstanding job of building character, confidence, and school spirit. The leadership, faculty, coaches, and staff genuinely dedicate themselves to the success of both students and their families. You can see their passion and commitment every day. The athletic department and programs are second to none, providing exceptional opportunities while reinforcing the values of teamwork, discipline, and leadership. We are grateful to be part of the Damien family and highly recommend it to any family looking for a school that develops young men academically, spiritually, athletically, and personally.

This is a delightful school.The reason I say that is because I use to go here and the teachers were…read morereally nice, P.E was tough, sometimes we have to run about 8 laps, but our 5th grade kickball tournament was amazing, our team won, you get to either pick a Oak Mesa track and field shirt or any hat they have. P.E was really fun but also tough. I loved my 4th and 5th grade teachers Ms.Moore and Ms.Layhee both were very nice, we got to do exciting projects it was really fun. 4th grade gold rush field trip was amazing! We did lots of fun things. What I really like about this school is that the students are very knowledgeable and have empathy, in my own opinion I think that kids here does thorough education and that they are able to understand what the teacher is saying. The kids would include you in anything, very helpful. So if your looking at the reviews, don't be shy and make some friends because you would not regret it! You would have so much fun, sadly...I had to leave this school for middle school. That's a whole new level but things are gonna get harder every grade ask for help if you need it, teachers, and students.

I explained to my son, you have to learn your ABC's and how to count to 10. He graduated! Then started kindergarten, and had a very hard time. In second grade the school recommended to transfer him to public school For free additional help (Now I believe WCS can accommodate more with disorders in kids as I believe they have an onsite program to assist better). I did send my child to a public school, and he was depressed for the entire 3 years! I worked hard during the recession and told my husband I am placing our child back at Western. And as Soon as I told our son, there was a sense of hope. He returned in sixth grade and graduated high school. Today he is an IT Tech for a mortgage company and has a heart that is open to life with non--judgment. He's trying to figure out how to make this world a better place. If anyone ever wanted to reach out and hear my story, I am willing to talk to you in person through WCS..

What stands out to us is that this school truly focuses on the whole child. Yes, the academics are good, but more importantly, our son has learned how to think independently, treat others with kindness, and carry himself with confidence and respect. Over the years, we've watched him grow into a confident, kind, and grounded young person - something we value even more than academic success. As parents, we've also grown alongside our child. The school supports families with open communication and by bringing in experts to talk about real-life topics like mental health, screen time and gaming, and what the future might look like for our kids - all of which have been incredibly helpful for us as parents. After 10 years here, this has been more than just a school experience - it's shaped our family in the best way.

The "Chef" is the last person I'd be calling a Chef. She has no sense of respect and appreciation…read morefor anyone. She makes you feel less than welcome. She doesn't train, she hovers and yells and spirals out of control when someone tries to do it their own way. Everything has to be done her specific way. You don't even get to cook, you just prep, clean up HER mess and do HER dishes with. No appreciation. People come and go from that kitchen yet she still remains. The "Chef" will shun your child if you're an "add on" lunch "don't your parents give you money for lunch? We can't keep feeding you, some of this lunch is for the kids that pay for it" There was a rat problem in the kitchen and she wouldn't do anything about it. Just laugh it off and never tell her boss about it and demanded food still be made in the kitchen. HR DOESN'T DO anything about her. They tell you to toughen up and just do it her way because it's her kitchen. They tell you to talk it out with her but the "chef" doesn't want to talk, only dictate. She's clearly the problem and only likes who she likes.

I attended Pomona Catholic from 1976-1980. Jimmy Carter was president during my entire high school…read moreyears. Attending a Catholic school in the 1970's was far different from today and I wish students today could experience the more creative, humanistic approach that was at PC in those days. Of course they were strict about certain things like the length of your skirt, but in the 1970's it was common to have class discussions about controversial topics. My Modern World Religions teacher was Ms. Bolle and she brought in a Christian pastor and someone from the Hare Khrishna sect and they debated and it was very eye-opening. My Freshman reading teacher was Ms. Angel Curtiss who was on loan to us from the public schools (I guess you could do that in those days) In one semester I read two Studs Terkel books (Working and Division Street America), Johnny Got His Gun and the Autobiography of Malcolm X. That class had the most impact on my life. Unfortunately, a few years back I tried to contact Ms. Curtiss to let her know the impact she had on my life but she had been killed in a car accident somewhere in the southern US along with her daughter a few years prior. Students, don't wait too long to let your teachers know how much you appreciate them. In my regular English classes we read many classics. I had Mrs. Morrison for many of my English courses. Ms. Stith was my freshman English teacher and we learned how to write a research paper which at the time was very difficult for me. I didn't do well in her class, however I would like her to know that what I learned about research in her class helped me in college later on. I had a great government teacher, Mrs. Kennedy. My freshman Social and Moral Guidance teacher, Rory Devine, later become a reporter for one of the networks in Los Angeles. Math and Science had the weakest teachers. Back in the day we only had to take pre algebra and geometry to graduate. I do think we were sort of tracked since no one ever mentioned college to me. However, I attended community college and some years later a four year college. We had Driver's Ed in the 10th grade. Mrs Phillips, one of the PE teachers taught the classroom part where we saw scary films like "Red Asphalt." That made me a safe driver. I also always remember her telling us to "leave yourself an out. Don't get blocked in on the freeway." Our behind the wheel instructor was a former marine with a buzz cut, gray suit and sunglasses who never smiled. There were two wheels in the car and he had control of one. Parallel parking was the hardest. The Tuttles were a married couple who everyone loved and I know Mr. Tuttle taught history, drama and consumer economics. I can't remember what Mrs. Tuttle taught. I remember he was trying to organize us to do a play but all of us girls were fighting so he made us sit down, gave us a talking to and had us listen to a Paul Mc Cartney and Wings song, "With a Little Luck." They later moved on to teach public school in I think Temecula. Every year we had this group come in and they set up big screens and played Styx songs. The videos were about values and doing the right thing. When we had mass at PC, they played modern type music. I appreciated that PC was a safe environment. The drug culture was in full swing so there were a lot of programs aimed at curtailing drug use due to American kids dying from tainted drugs. We also had a short program on becoming an emancipated minor. It was the 70's, what can I say. Some students also published an underground newspaper. I still have a copy somewhere. The student writers renamed the school "Prison Camp" and bitterly complained about the ugly uniforms! I wish kids today could get some of the education and experiences we got in that era. Things today are too censored and curriculum is watered down. Teachers don't have the same control of curriculum that they had in past eras. I wouldn't trade my 70's education for anything. Maybe a little project could be for today's PC kids to go back into the old yearbooks and do a compare and contrast evaluation of education.
