Phineas Banning Senior High School Reviews


Posted By: student Quality Score: 4 2007-12-13 “I was a student here and I can personally tell you that the school is a lot better than it appears to be. There are many opportunities for the students and plenty of help is offered by the faculty. Programs such as Magnet and ITA really help you get prepared for college. The school also seems to be improving every year.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2007-05-30 “I have two kids that have attended Banning High School and I am also an alumni my son is class of '06' and my daughter is in the ninth grade. My son graduated with honors and is attending UC Davis but he was also very committed to school worked hard to achieve this my daughter on the other hand could care less and is not motivated I don't blame the school I blame the students that don't realize that these years of High School is what will build there future there is so many great teachers there who spend there lunch time in the classroom offering extra help and tutoring for the kids who really want to learn.If your child is not learning it is not the schools fault its the student who is making this choice.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 3 2006-11-24 “As a past student, I can say that the academic opportunities are there for the students that really want to take advantage of them. After graduating from Banning HS, I was well prepared to attend an university and obtain a BSN in Nursing. This school has some exceptional teachers that will help you archive your educational goals. Unfortunately, some of the attending students are there to kill time and give this school a bad rep. Parents need to be involved in the future of their kids to help guide them along with the school personnel.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 3 2006-10-15 “As a graduated student from Banning High, I can say this school is not what everyone seems to depict it as. Anyone who wants to come out successfull will do so. Parents who do say their children arent learning anything, dont blame it on the school the school has more than enough to offer, academies of many kind. Check your children and find out what they are doing, if they really are getting involved. I am now in college, was involved at Banning. Bottom line, Banning is a great school, the best. Parents get involved! Thats what the school needs. Too much talk, and no action from the parents.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2006-08-20 “Banning is a great school, I really don't understand why it is critiqued so badly. It all depends on the students' effort. If they want to succeed they will, if they don't want to succeed they won't. Banning is now offering many great academies that students can join such as the International Trade Academy, GESA, Global Safety Academy, etc.. where students have the chance to learn about different careers and job opportunities that they might want to pursue in life. I as an alumni of Banning High School am glad to say that Banning is a great school. As I said it all depends on the students' efforts not on the reputation that the school might have!” Posted By: teacher Quality Score: 2 2006-04-10 “The teachers have an uphill battle as there is little parental involvement and administration is unstable.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2005-10-25 “Banning is not the best school for any child to go to. Since I am a parent and one of my children were going to go there I know what it looks like first hand. The campus is dirty. If I was a parent looking at Banning as an option I would recommend you looking at king drew or San Pedro if those schools are to far from your house I would try Sarah or St. Paul they are public school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2005-08-22 “I don't think my child is learning anything at all.”
