Not exactly like the schools on any other Air Force Base. It's completely the opposite. Most of the students at this school are not military children unlike I was. There is bullying involved here at this school especially cyber bullying today. At least the school principal dealt with the bullying and harassment. Everybody else continues to believe everything that turns out to not be true. Highly not recommended if your kids are military brats.

A good majority of the staff would stand out the most in terms of what I like about the school, yet I would like to see some faculty changes (fixing broken things around the school faster) and more funding overall.

I am an alumni of this school. I attended Desert High School in 1968. It was one of the best high schools in California. Academics, social activities and sports. I pulled out my 1968 Year Book and remembered how lucky I was. I am heartbroken about some of the previous comments about Desert H.S. We w...

It seems like being a school on an Air Force base that also has NASA on it, the kids would have opportunities available to them that outside schools don't. I'm disappointed that this does not seem to be the case. Robotics, Lego, Rocket and similar clubs have been attempted but it seems like there's...
