    My experience wasn't bad at all. Teachers weren't too bad and other students were friendly. The…read moreonly problem was with one of the assistant principals Dr. Donohue . I'm glad to finally be vocal about how she treats students now cuz someone needs to say something. She's rude, doesn't treat students like people, and is abusive. She will use any chance to take advantage of you. She doesn't do anything when you need help except maybe blame you and make you feel guilty. Like imagine being that miserable frrr. Someone get her out of this school district nowwwww

    I went to four different high schools, and this one was my favorite one…read more I had some amazing teachers including Miss Paris, Mrs. Pavlecic, Coach Freitas, and Mr. Duer. Mrs. Freitas was my first PE coach when I transferred there, and two years later, I joined her gymnastics team. She was such an amazing coach! So sad she retired after my year! Mr. Duer was my pre-calculus and calculus teacher. He taught very very well! I was able to understand everything. His practice tests helped A LOT. He always had ramen ready for his favorite students... and can't forget about the doughnuts! I had some pretty bad teachers as well including my trigonometry teacher who got fired/left. One time she made me slap myself just because I missed a question on the test. She also yelled at me one time for giggling during study time. Looking back at those times, I kind of want to giggle since it was years ago! She was such a bad teacher haha. The administration changed when I attended. Bob Moran was our new principal when I was in my junior year. He is great, and even signed my yearbook:) The one thing I did not like about the new administration was this: if we were even a second late getting to class from lunch break, we would be forced to go to a one hour detention after school. I had to go one time, but it wasn't a big deal since I used that time to do my homework. I had a lot of fun on the swim team, badminton team, and gymnastics team. Mostly everyone was nice. School spirit was high. I loved how the school gave free doughnuts to students who wore school spirit clothing on a specific day of the week. Spirit week was a BLAST. Senior week was sooo special and amazing! I will never forget the Waterworld picnic and senior cruise. Can't forget to mention the senior trip to Disneyland! What a dream come true! The school does a great job with school dances, especially prom. Junior and senior year prom were both so beautiful. Junior year prom was at the SF City Hall! So gorgeous! The school definitely needs an update though! They need new lockers for everyone! Especially full lockers for every single student. Sucks how freshmen only get a tiny box. They should replace the portables with a brand new building for lockers or classes. Overall, I'm happy I went to this high school. I made unforgettable memories here. I met some amazing people and made friendships that lasted. Last year, I even went to my best friend's wedding. She was the first friend I made at WHS. I definitely recommend this high school. The open campus lunches are amazing.

    HA AH! you can yelp high schools now, amazing…read more Anyways I went to Mission San Jose High School since my freshmen year and graduated year of 06, this school is constantly known as one of the top high schools and ...it is true if you look at test results etc.. after all after the new SATs were out the first time it was given 3 out of the 4 people who got full score were from our school. This school is mainly composed of ... you guessed it! asians!! and no just like the famous Russel Peters said asians are not just Chinese, there are many koreas and indians as well. I had a great experience at this school but there are a few down falls. First the administration does not very closely monitor how teachers work, but then again I don't think other schools do as well, but some teachers are just ... I want to say F****** Retarded, no names now but my junior year English teacher Mr. _____(his last name was a color so take a wild guess) was a fruit basket with bananas on top, he thought he was the smartest man ever and his grading was extremely unfair. Also my sophomore year English teacher was the weirdest man ever, he spent one class telling the whole class how we're stupid and not going to succeed in life, interesting to say the least.. Also many other English teachers I didn't have I also heard some pretty bad things about. Actually now that I think about it only the English department had some issues, so MSJ needs to up their game in that area. Secondly, the cafeteria staff wasn't friendly at all, the asian lady who works there seems like she always has her pants pulled up too high or something, always rude to everyone and never said you're welcome when we said thank you. But I had some very good experiences as well, the leadership teacher/ activities coordinator was very good and fun to work with Mr. B! and our principal was pretty cool as well. The majority of the teachers were good but there are a few bad eggs that ruin the basket. It's too bad. FINALLY, I must finish saying, that the cupertino high schools yes LYNBOOK, Monta Vista, etc.. you guys need an update on test scores, I'm so sick of those chinese parents over there telling their kids that they high school is the best etc etc.. that was 10 years ago, check the scores now we're on a whole other level ahead of you guys, I'm so sick of being in college and having those cupertino kids think they are so much smarter than us, REALITY CHECK TIME!!!

    I tried to have a party at the creek for us old timers. I tried to rent the parking lot by the…read morecreek. The school staff and students are extremely prejudice against white people. Rude and dishonest with over changing me for the lot. They wanted me to pay eight hours OT for a custodian to unlock and lock the gate. They do not charge that to other people that use the facilities. I didn't rent it . Then they tried to charge me anyway, weeks later.

They are incredibly kind and have a great sense of humor, which makes the classroom such a positive and welcoming place for the children. Together, they create an environment where every child feels seen and heard, and they build strong, meaningful connections with their students. Ms.Giri brings a nurturing and gentle approach, truly understanding that the children are still young kindergarteners. She pampers them with warmth and care, making them feel safe, comforted, and supported every day. Ms.Vohra, on the other hand, beautifully complements this by encouraging the children to become more responsible and independent. She ensures they learn to follow rules and classroom routines, helping them grow with confidence and structure. They are both attentive to the children's needs and address concerns promptly. We also have experienced their genuine care firsthand. On two occasions when my daughter misplaced her sweater, Ms.Giri went above and beyond to help--she even replaced it with a new one so my daughter wouldn't worry. Whenever my daughter has taken a sick day, she has always made it a point to personally call and check on her health, which means so much to us. They also ensured we receive the essential homework sheets on time so my daughter could keep up. These gestures truly touch our hearts and reflect the deep care and dedication they have for her students.

She is…read moretruly one of those rare educators who goes above and beyond--not just academically, but emotionally as well. She has created such a warm, nurturing, and safe environment where my kid feel seen, bonded with, and encouraged. She has a natural ability to connect with children and parents individually, and it shows in how happy and supported our child feels. What stands out most is how genuinely caring and patient she is. We are so grateful for the love, dedication, and positivity she brings. Any child would be lucky to be in her class! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for her to move to being a 1st grade teacher!

    My child started at this school in November of 2024...when we dropped her off for her first day, we…read morewere introduced by one of the lady staff in the office. By how she looked at us, I see that we were being judged. A couple weeks goes by and our child is telling us that some of the staffs were talking to her as if she wasn't a human being. She'll come home, tell us about how they would say things that made me uncomfortable. Example: her presence was irritating them. I went up to the school one morning and told all the staffs and including the assistant principal that they better stop talking crazy to my child. Cause at home my children are disciplined. (Yes they get yelled at or talked to for their actions). There's so many times I've had to go up to the school to put these staffs in check. Wrong mama. My child doesn't like confrontations. If she feels like she's being disrespected, she's gonna let me know. There's a female (P.E) staff there that tried to twist my daughter's word when we had set a meeting up. I wanted to know what happened. There was an incident that took place with another student. This staff was a "mediator". As we were in the room, I let my daughter speak, the lady staff tried to interrupt my daughter. I told her to let my child speak. I didn't like the fact that she tried to justify what she told me and then tell my daughter different. What I won't allow is for an adult to interrupt my child when she is advocating for herself while l'm in her presence. There are a few staff that I've grown to like. If I had the chance to pull my child out and do homeschool, I would. We send our children to school to these staff(s) to teach and watch over them. Not for them to treat our children like sh!t. I don't have a problem going up to the school and give them my 2 cents. They need to work better on their attitudes... cause it stinks like sewage water.

    I attended this school for both 7th and 8th grade (22-23 and 23-24 school years). It is genuinely…read morethe WORST school I have ever attended. Most of the teachers are either wayyyy too strict, rude and mean, or don't teach properly. I know a lot of people complain about the Pagans but I had Mr. Pagan for eight grade US History and as long as you followed his (kind of ridiculous) rules, the class was pretty interesting (he was really funny at times). His wife was a jerk, though. The administrators and office staff, on the other hand, are a hot mess. They don't care about the kids and there have been several incidents where they've been racist to kids and teachers. I don't really understand why you would choose to work with kids if you don't like them.....? A lot of the teachers had weird rumors about them as well (especially a certain PE teacher). If you have to attend Thornton, good luck. Grit your teeth and get through it. If you're a parent reading this, please support your kid. They're reallyyy gonna need it.

    I'm currently a student here and all the common misconceptions are so very wrong. Many people…read moreconceive that Kennedy is a school for the 'bad' kids, well you are wrong. Coming into this school, I believed what people told me; that this school was filled with gangs, that the students didn't care about college, the teachers didn't care, and that it's overall a bad environment for a student. Now that I am a student here, my view has entirely changed. The students here are working on changing what the public thinks of Kennedy. In the future Kennedy will be a college going school. To be frank, there are people who dress like gangsters, but in reality they act like any other high school student. The AVID program at Kennedy is spearheading the college going culture thanks to Mr. Dave Williams. Kennedy is currently the only AVID certified school in FUSD. For those who don't know what AVID is, it is a program that is designed to give students the tools and the mind thought to get students into Four-year Universities. http://www.tricityvoice.com/articlefiledisplay.php?issue=2011-05-31&file=AVID+++TCV.txt Currently, the Class of 2012 AVID Class has 71 College Acceptances split between 15 students. Not bad. Many of the teachers at Kennedy truly care for the students and they actually want the students to succeed. The only problem is the students' work ethic. Many of the students are smart, but generally very lazy. If parents were more involved in their own child's life, it would better their education, and overall make Kennedy a better place for education. For the time that I've been here, I've felt very safe. It's a very family-like atmosphere here at Kennedy, there are no cliques at all. Everyone is friends with each other. The only downside at Kennedy is that the school is so poor and we do not get enough funding. We are so technologically behind here at Kennedy that it's funny. I really hope that in the future when I have kids, that Kennedy will be rebuilt/remodeled. The school is extremely old and fragile. Overall, I would not hesitate to send any child to this school. You truly have to experience it yourself in the end.

You're a disorganized bunch and stop reading Crazy Rich Asians while on the job. I am trying to get an education here and you put me up in a nonsense subjects. That's so unprofessional of you to also post " I CAN'T TALK TOO MUCH SO JUST FILL UP THIS FORM " CRAP. Extra star is for the teachers who supported me in my education.

    American High School, is the high school I attended because I live in North Fremont, specifically,…read more the Ardenwood area. Students of the following 6 Elementary Schools, Ardenwood, Forest Park, Warwick, Brookvale, Oliveira, & Patterson Elementary attend Thornton Junior High, and then finally they attend American. I started my education career at Ardenwood Elementary, then Thornton, and finally American High. First off even though the spirit of the school is lacking, it is still fun and enjoyable if you make it that way! Spirit Week for the students is one huge celebration each class celebrates for one week where their entire class creates cardboard props and put them inside/around the Rotunda to display them to everyone to see. Every year there's a different theme for each class, such as a different type of television show, board game, Disney theme, etc. During lunch, that week, each class gives a presentation/skit about their theme and try to prove their class is the best and has the most spirit!! One of the other popular events is RUSH Week, which is one week in September when clubs advertise themselves in the Rotunda during lunch. It's a time for you to learn more about all the different clubs on campus and join the ones that interest you. American High has about like 59 various different clubs for you to join. Another event would be Battle of the Boulevards, which is a Football game battle between us Eagles and our rival Huskies! The reason it's called Battle of the Boulevard, is because both American and Washington are located on Fremont Blvd, were both schools are trying to claim Fremont Blvd! (You're probably thinking, but what's so good about Fremont Blvd!? Nothing really, it's just the glory of owning it I suppose.) There are rallies at the school as well where on various Friday's, where after 6th period most of the students tend to go inside the school gymnasium and watch other fellow American High students perform dances, acts, skits, to show off their talent! If your son or daughter does not want to go inside and enjoy the rally, they have another option to stay inside the cafeteria and just hang out there with their friends. There are lots of other main events such as battle of the sexes week where each gender battles against the other in events, Eagle Nation Week, Staff Appreciation Week, International Week, and many more! Now onto the Academic side of American High. American offers many different course offerings for students to take. For Foreign Language, American offers, Mandarin, Spanish, French, and American Sign Language (ASL). Elective courses include, Architecture, Sculpture, Art, Studio Art, Photography, Web Design, Weight Training, Team Sports, Drama, Band, Choir, Guitar, Creative Writing, Public Speaking, Leadership, AVID, Parenting and Family Living, Filipino Heritage Studies, Psychology, Engineering, Law Enforcement & Administration of Justice (ROP), Marketing (ROP), Business Ownership (ROP), Culinary Arts (ROP) and many more! You also have your general courses, for Math, English, History, and of course Science. Overall, It's a pretty good school, lots of the teachers care, and it's just a great school for your student to attend.
