I am very satisfied with my experience with Armijo. The students are very friendly and welcoming and I've learned many things/lessons from not only students but teachers. They allowed for me to become the person I am today and allowed for me to push myself especially with the IB program.

I really like going to Armijo! They have really good programs such as International Baccalaureate and the leadership program is so much fun. They have a lot of good opportunities and I am proud to plan on graduating here.

Everything at Armijo High is great but the admin is horrible when it comes to certain people. Certain admin don't support students when it comes to activities when it will benefit them for the long term. But other than the admin, the events, extracurricular's, and the teachers are all great people and actually try to help students succeed in life.
