This School’s Reviews

4.0 Senior

7/10/2025

Overall I've had really nice experience at Apollo high-school. There are plenty of clubs or sports available for everyone to participate in. One thing I was not pleased with is teachers not making sure all students are properly prepared for the follow year. There are very few times where interactions with students or teachers haven't been good. I would like to see teachers change their way of approaching problems with students. I hope my final year continues to be the same nice experience I've been having.

My overall experience with Apollo High School has been great. The people, teachers, students are each different in there ways and share their views and perspectives of world in order to prepare us students for the future. Although it may have a hispanic majority our school involves all cultures.

It is very amazing when you are involved in sports and clubs. Example: I have been involved with clubs since freshman year and I am still a good student. You learn to manage your time as well as having fun at school with clubs and sports going around.
