    Super impressed with the upgrades to the football field. The Track and field looks really good and the turfgrass is well kept. They did a great job for the visiting teams side and they have tv's available down on the field for instant replays. The school is doing a great job with keeping the school pride at an all time high! Wilson high should be proud with the progress and accomplishments they've achieved this far. To all the Teaching staff, Administrators, Coaches, School Police, Groundsman, and students. Keep up the great work, your school looks great and you should be proud!

    Wilson High School is getting better and better each year! Now, with the addition of Mrs. Caverly last year, I've seen tremendous change in all aspects of the school.

    Went to the Wilson Dance Spring show. In a word Phenomenal job. Everyone should support this group of teens. This was a very well put together show. I've seen many dance shows and was extremely empresses that these were high school students. Keep up the good work Wilson Dance. For anyone that wants to go to a dance show go to the Wilson dance Instagram page for shows.

If you have an outstanding student and want a free private school education, send them to Poly.. The PACE & CIC programs are outstanding. The teachers, the Administrators and Councelors in these programs really care, go the extra mile and are quality people. These programs are a feeder to the best schools in our country, including the Ivy League. If your child is a talented committed athlete send them to Poly. It is not easy to make the teams at Poly- including the girls teams. But this is an inner city school with a lot of talent. Poly is the number one feeder school to the NFL AND ESPN's High School of the Century. Music program - fantastic. There is a lot of pride among the students and parents. And it is amazing how successful this school is despite what's available to them. Gyms- old and need to be upgraded. Pool - terrible! Needs a remodel. The common area - needs work. I really wish Snoop Dog, Cameron Diaz or a wealthy alumnus would donate a lot of money to start a fundraising effort to upgrade the school. The basketball coaching staff is respected and loved by players and families. And they give so much time, so much effort VOLUNTARILY. These coaches care, are talented themselves and want to make a difference. My son transferred to a private school after attending Poly two years and realized he made a mistake and transferred back for his senior year. Go jack rabbits!

    We are not year-round family at Westerly, but we consistently return for their summer camp…read more Our eleven-year-old son had attended all the local summer camps in Long Beach--JCC, 49'er camp, the city's parks and recs--over the past few years, and he ranks Westerly the highest among all camp experiences. The staff is accommodating, the hours are flexible (7:30 am to 5:30 pm), and he has a great time.

    What can I say. Our family loves Westerly! Our eldest started at one of Long Beach's blue ribbon…read moreschools, but with the huge classes we decided to take a look at Westerly and we couldn't go back. Since then all our kids have thrived in their Westerly experience. It starts with a sizable campus with a beautiful grass field for sports and activities, newly constructed learning studios and the amazing arts village. What a great place to learn. Then the passionate teachers and staff deliver a whole child program, with a better than 10:1 student/teacher ratio. The Westerly program includes: Curriculum and instruction - Enthusiastic teachers with a well thought out curriculum and small class sizes enabling teachers to adapt the curriculum to the needs of your child. Technology/STEM - Westerly recently hired a full-time Director of Instructional Technology to enhance an already strong technology/STEM program throughout the curriculum. Think coding in class, 3D printing, science and engineering fairs, etc. Visual and performing arts - Incorporated in the curriculum is an annual school-wide play lead by the folks at TKTC. The visual arts program is second to none with the kids being exposed to public arts projects, ceramics in the new ceramics studio, mixed media, painting, photography, etc. I wish I could take the classes myself. Wildcat, the after school program is a blessing. Our kids beg to go to Wildcat to play with their friends, work on yearbook, take film, dance, music, robotics and other after school enrichment activities. Athletics - A legitimate, well-run PE program with enthusiastic instruction and basketball, volleyball, football teams throughout elementary and middle school. Music - Every child takes both general and instrumental music as part of their Westerly experience. Spanish - Kindergarten through 8th grade all the kids get introduced to the Spanish language through a dedicated Spanish instructor. Leadership - This is quite possibly one of the most amazing parts of the curriculum. Continuing on the theme of whole child education the Director of Student Affairs leads an amazing program that goes so beyond student council, creating leadership opportunities for so many children. Programs like student council, district representatives, green team, etc., start in Kindergarten and the kids grow in responsibility as the children grow themselves. Each child also gains leadership responsibilities as a student mentor, where each older student is paired with a younger student as a mentor. Service learning and field studies - As the kids grow in maturity so do the service learning and field studies. Our children have enjoyed trips to Catalina and other local camps, but the highlight of the program is a one week trip in 8th grade where the whole class travels to Nicaragua to conduct a service learning project, practice their spanish, and are exposed to a different culture and way of life that they are used to. Community - Westerly is a place where without question every family places a priority on securing a great, well-rounded education for their children. Being in an environment like this is so fantastic. Independent school is not cheap, but in our minds it's the best gift we can give to our children. Westerly also offers significant financial aid support, so if that is an issue be sure to discuss your situation with the school to see if they can make something work for your family. P.S. This may sound like a paid ad, but it's our true feelings about this place. It's really special.

    Their kindergarten is the only reason I'm giving 3 stars, without it I would give them 1 star…read more Their kindergarten department is a blessing. The same cannot be said for the rest. It starts at the top with their principal,Mrs. Robinson. The level of professionalism she displayed during my interactions with her, I would expect from a child, not from an adult much less an adult in her position. As stated the teachers and aides in their kindergarten department were outstanding and while I'm sure they have a few teachers who do care and try to educate our children, she sets the tone. After having various discussions with my son's teacher, we would communicate consistently to make sure he was doing his part and that we as parents did ours. There was an issue with some students that my son ended up involved in. I spoke with everyone involved and was told the situation was addressed only to later receive a call from Mrs Robinson informing me my son was suspended along with a completely different version of the events. When we met to discuss this the aide involved was not present nor would we be able to hear their version. The teacher whom I would always communicate with changed their narrative on my son and wouldn't even look in my direction throughout the entire meeting. The attitude displayed by Mrs Robinson was "zero f's" given. Mrs Robinson, I'm a grown man who respects women (and truly appreciate the teachers who play a key role in not only educating but also help raise our children) I decided to act my age and not my shoe size. The job you hold carries lofty expectations which based not just on my review, but many others I see here, are epically failing to meet. Do better! I could've resorted to returning the same energy you displayed during our meeting but didn't. This won't be the case all the time. Hopefully you end up stepping aside before you run into a person who decides to teach you the acronym for f.a.f.o.

The orange lady on the playground, Ms Lee basically does not let any of the kids do anything and when a problem arises on the playground, she doesn't even ask both students for their side of the story. She sides with the white kids no matter what. She gives directions, the kids do as she says and she's still mad saying they are following her directions incorrectly. The counselor Ms Wheels should not be around children! She belittles them and makes them feel bad for wanting to do better?? Doesn't make sense. Many of the good teachers have quit before covid! Being student of the month was almost a punishment because you're not allowed to invite one guest like you could before and you get one slice of pizza and only sit with the principal Dr Richards. The old principal used to offer practically a buffet for the student And ever since Mr Curran left, it became a jail. Luckily this year for anyone reading this, the principal has left and there's a new principal. I don't know anything about him, we left this school, yay! The reason the school gets an extra star is because the parents here are great! The PTA is strong which offers the students 2 extra classes not offered at other schools, science lab and computers. There's also a drama club and lots of other events like a carnival, movie nights, etc.. Just be ready to always have your wallet open. They always want donations.

    Granted, my son only had his first day of school as a freshman, but he loved the school already…read more I went to orientation with him, and we both fell in love with the dedicated staff and the large and very diverse student body. The campus is old and showing its age, but just as with any school, it's the software that matters.

    As someone somewhere sometimes and always has often said, high school and other milestone…read moreexperiences in life is what you make of it. As the mother of two sons who have successfully graduated with high honors at this school, I come away from here having generally positive thoughts and feelings about their particular high school journeys. In total, I was a Millikan parent for 6 years from 2017 thru 2023. During these years, I saw them transition to Zoom instruction during Covid, then return to in-person classes. It is a large school of about 3,000-4000 students. There are many options for A-G requirement courses (English, Math, Science etc), many AP courses available to choose from (such as Human Geography, Computer Science, French, German etc.) and various electives offered (such as Dance, Jazz, Band, Vocal, Photography, Museum studies, etc). I can speak highly of the COMPASS program in which my First-Born was a part of--allowing him to be surrounded by creative oriented peers and teachers. And I can also speak highly of the PEACE program which my Youngest was a part of allowing him to be surrounded by social justice oriented peers and teachers. Both programs allow for high achieving goals as you can choose to take as many AP courses as you want at your discretion and ability level. The cost of taking the test for the students is $5.00 (the district pays for the difference which is something over $100) and allows the student to take the commendable risk of taking the test without too much pressure cost wise--and the rewards of passing is actual college credit that not only saves time but helps stamp down costs for college. As parents, we're particularly grateful for these benefits. They have career counseling, tutoring services, and they help with college applications, filling out the FAFSA etc. I also believe they have a Food Pantry to help out students with food insecurity and other services offered...please contact the school directly to inquire about these services and take advantage of them as needed. We're not a sports family, but they also have a variety of sports--some highly recognized and many of these athletes win scholarships. Are there down sides? Yes. As with any school, I'm sure, not every class and/or teacher is talented or dedicated. For the highly motivated student, the need to effectively navigate these situations (often with palpable frustration) is necessary. Some teachers are called to be teachers, some see it as just a job and a paycheck. I wish it didn't have to be that way, but that's just the truth and a real part of the experience. I wish the Administration kept a better eye on these situations to make sure they hire the best staff for the benefit of the students--but that will be an on-going issue, at this school and anywhere else. The vaping...you definitely hear stories. And the school feels that locking bathrooms is a way to discourage this situation--except now students have the challenge to find restrooms that are open. Definitely not ideal. And I'm sure there are many other negative experiences and stories out there. The existence and absence of drama is a personal one and really just depends on the student. The school does have a uniform policy--not terribly difficult to follow and frankly, cost effective. Overall advice: research the surrounding high schools since LBUSD does have a School of Choice policy. Attend the Site Nights and feel out the fit for your student. Some feel more right than others. Millikan, at least for us, was the best fit.
