Best- amazing clubs and sports. Good connections to collages Bad- collage readiness education. I feel as if a lot of student here aren't well educated and were behind

I have gone to this school for all four years of highschool. It is a little crowded but personally all of the teachers I got have been amazing and very involved. Administration isn't so good but the teachers and coaches are a 10/10

I have been at Desert Edge for about 2 years now and my experience has been wonderful. The teachers are nice and as someone who likes challenges, the courses are rigorous, but not impossible. There are lots of resources available like the library and the arts here are taught by amazing teachers who take pride in their work. The sports are good and inclusive. Overall, my experience has been good so far.
