Very good, some teachers/coaches aren't but most are. We have nice facilities and good electronic devices.

In terms of tradition and sports, Artesia High is second to none. But compared to many other surrounding schools, Artesia is not as strong in education as tradition and sports. It is a smaller school and everyone are close and love the school, but feel that going to class is a waste of time because they are not taught well.

The people are welcoming and friendly. If you need help or have questions, they will readily help you. Classes and extra-curricular activities are adequately funded, so you can receive a good education. The off-campus lunch is amazing. It is a smaller school compared to others, so there won't be many strangers.
