Saddleback High School Reviews

 
Well Im still a senior at Saddleback High School and have noticed that the school is deteriorating. I will put most of the blame on administration and students. I love the teachers I do find them motivated and are fully commited to trying to get the students to go to the best universities possible. Lastly I am proud to say Im a roadrunner!!

Unmotivated students, unmotivated teachers, unmotivated staff members. It just felt like a gloomy place where this aurora of lack of careness for education. Transferring out of Saddleback and to Segerstrom high was the best thing that happened to me.

the programs are good but the attiude of the staff is poor. their counselors, are just awful, poof attitude, talk down to parents and studnets difficult to deal with and talk to. they lack understanding, feeling and caring for the students

the teachers were great the programs were verry help ful also business academy help me with my digital portfolio those have been the greatest times with Academy of business and technology

I graduated from shs in 2004 and I loved the time spent there. Shs has many programs to offer to the students. I was in the business academy and I learned so many useful techniques that have helped me out in the working world. Shs has what it takes to offer a successful education, it all the depends whether the student takes advantage of the opportunities given. Parent involvement is limited but in a hispanic community where parents have to work to support the family and have night shifts or no transportation it is difficult to attend many of the events. As in everything there is always good and bad but shs is a great school! If more donations and contributions were made towards shs the school would improve greatly. Out of all the santa ana public high schools shs is the best! Roadrunners are the best!

I graduated from S.H.S. 2002. I think its a good school, it has many AP and honor classes. Some of the best teachers and programs are from the Spanish Department. Currently I'm going to CSUF and I haven't learned much in my spanish classes, I learned everything in S.H.S.

The school itself and the special education plan is great. The attitude of the staff and they way they treat the students and parents I do not like, very unprofessional and poor attitutdes.

Saddle Back is a great School!

Once a student of SHS, I am proud to say that the school has high academic standards for all of its students. It is important to note that SHS is populated ethnically diverse, and thus has made many adjustments to accomodate some of the students--this, in my opinion allows for students to be exposed to different parts of the world through their peers. The honors program and AP program are top-notch, most students who enroll in these courses end up in some of the best schools in SoCal and in the US; incuding: UCLA, USC, UCB, Stanford, Cornell, NYU, Boston Uni.

I have found the Saddleback staff difficult to reach unless you actually go to the school. Also, they are inconsistent on absences. My son has skipped a lot of classes since January and I did not find out about any of it until the end February. I had spent over two weeks calling daily leaving messages for any counsler regarding my son with no response. I finally had to go to take time off work and go to the school and meet with the assistant principal before I had control of the situation.

The quality is adequate. Several different types of extracurricular activities are available to s
