Newport Harbor High School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2008-10-08 “This school is excellent, it is safe and the teachers are wonderful” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2006-04-10 “I feel very fortunate to have my son at NHHS. However, I must say that the real defining factor for a childs success thede days is the home environment. Parents need to start early with their children when it comes to study skills, tutoring, etc. My husband and I never remember our parents being so involved. It seems that teachers are too bogged down with paperwork and required curriculums to teach as well as they used to.I don't blame them, but instead the governments involvement. Parents in this area also do way to much of their childrens homework for them, and that really distrurbs me. The 'rich' kids in this area and their lack of respect for their parents, scholl, and authority is the only downfall to this scholl. If you can get past that, as we have, the school has excellent opportunities.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 3 2006-03-22 “Newport is great...the location is really what makes it key. As I always say, 'Beach town kids are happier kids!'” Posted By: student Quality Score: 4 2006-02-20 “Im currently a transferring senior to Harbor, comming from Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Although my previous school in Michigan was a socially better experience for me, I love this school. The only problem is that some people are 'clicky,' just as any other high school is. I like it though. Thumbs up!” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 4 2006-01-30 “Newport Harbor High is a great school. Compared to a majority of other schools in the state its variety of extra curricular acitivities are more than exceptional. However it is not as 'nice' as many would hope and expect it to be. The school is run down and unattractive inside. This is of course excluding the beautiful exterior with the iconic bell tower and Robins hall.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2006-01-14 “Pathetic.The discipline is only for the less fortunate. We are a upper middle class family and cannot wait to get our kids out of here. If you give big bucks to the school you can write your childs ticket but if not too bad for your kids. The parents and their cash run the school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2005-11-04 “Harbor was an all-around great experience for my three children over the past 8 years.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2005-08-19 “When I read these reviews I think that they are referring to some other school. I have two kids in the school now, and one just graduated,who was admitted to some very good colleges. The AP programs are very good and are offered in many subjects. My junior is in 3 or 4 this year. I have also met some very good and committed teachers who do all kinds of things with the students after school. The school does seem to have its share of goof-offs and poor performers, which isn't surprising considering that it is by far the biggest high school in the district, and draws from a wide range of neighborhoods, including other language students. But the blend is socially positive. If your kid is a performer, this school has a lot to offer, with a lot of other performers and a rich sense of tradition.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 1 2005-08-16 “Academics hardly outstanding. Some few dedicated teachers. Most just putting in time and 'making' work to fill hours. Lots of extracurricular stuff as if it were the ultimate priority. The worst bunch of kids I've ever come across, and that includes exclusive private schools in Switzerland, France and England. Sad.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2005-06-04 “This is a bad school and my child wants to go to fountain valley.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2005-05-25 “There academics were too easy for my daughter. Its just like they are playing around- SHE SAID. i didnt let my daughter stay there that long to notice the parent involvement”
