Santa Cruz is an average school, I feel we don't have much resources, but they try to use the little we do have as best as possible. My experience has been great, I have experienced many traditional high school things like going to games, volunteering, and showing school pride, things like that.

The school can use more involvement with the teachers. Also, the school as a staff need to be on the same page for maximum productivity for the students.

My experience with this school has been an average experience. Some teachers here are very good but others not so much. This school has very little clubs and most are not that appealing, it's more like a preferred taste to join one. The food here is okay at best, not nutritious at all, but they try to be. This school doesn't really prepare you for college, they try a little bit but it's not really much.
