My experience at El Cerrito High School has been fairly well, the teachers seem to really care for the students but they also have academic expectations they expect their students to live up to.Some teachers also find time for after school hours to support students academically.The students at El Cerrito High School are also welcoming to all students of different backgrounds.

The best part of the school is the inclusion of diversified groups. The worst part is the service. Delayed scheduled meetings and sometimes unreasonably rude staff.

Make sure to take all AP History classes because I had a lot of fun taking them. On top of that, remember to take AP Environmental Science with Ms. Holman specifically. She teaches exactly like a college class, meaning that you will gain some college experience in high school. If you decide to take AP Calculus, I recommend taking both AB and BC in the same year.

Things have only gone downhill since the pandemic (not surprisingly). Aside from district wide teacher shortages, the Principal at ECHS cannot and does not lead. She was barely visible (except for online at her home, eating) once a semester. The vice principals are stronger (but one is leaving). My...

The school is ok. ADMIN is terrible and they don't allow kids to walk the stage for missing the 2 days of rehearsal. I know over 20 kids who won't walk the stage because they can't miss work or other required activities to go to both rehearsals but can make the graduation. This school is honestly a...
