Its good for college readiness with the C@SH classes that can allow you to have an Associates degree when graduating, the negatives would be food is basic and the student counsel isn't much help. Overall great classes and opportunities but could use better food and clubs.

I've attended Spectrum High School for nearly 7 years, as I first came as a sixth grader. I have seen the school grow, and change, and make decisions that I don't necessarily agree with. Spectrum is currently in a state of development. Ground has been broken on a new, pricey field fieldhouse, and our sports are mediocre at best. yet our theater program, which has numerous accolades, must practice in the 7/8th grade choir room. That being said, I have had some great opportunities here at Spectrum, especially in regard to their academics. I will be graduating this spring with my Associates of Arts degree, which is HUGE when it comes to saving money on college. This is unique to their C@SH (College at Spectrum High) program, which allows you to take college classes in the school. Another thing: class sizes are small, usually between 90-130, so as you can imagine, that comes with both benefits, like close-knit, and drawbacks, like a limited pool of people to draw from.

good but administration is literally evil. things feel rigged against each and every student, no matter their grades, race, gender, or background. At least they're not discriminatory! Oh wait, they are.

Two of our children attended Spectrum while our third attended the other high school in this area (all at the same time). Every school and every dist...

I have had two children attend. Teachers are phenomenal and the environment is positive.
1/17/2020
I would say that my experience here has been good up until the last couple years. Administration made changes that were not communicated to teachers or students that left the school in shambles. Teachers left because of it. Now, the school is attempting to assign a “video project” that is blatant fr...
