Small school. The campus is old and the theatre is like an elementary school, in the auditorium. Not a great option for the arts/theatre/dance.

The community is very tight knit, and many parents are extremely supportive of the students. Many teachers are very dedicated and to the students.

My experience at half moon bay high school was really good. I loved all of my 4 years of high school. Even though one year was remote. The school managed to do a great job online. The school has given us great opportunities to join clubs as well as given us many opportunity ideas to help out our community. The staff and teachers have been very supportive and helpful.The only thing that I would change would probably be to help the school have more spirit.

Male students harass female teachers. Female teachers spread unfounded gossip about one another. The racism among adult women is appalling. My time on this campus often felt hurtful, disheartening, and outright disgusting. To think that people this ignorant are responsible for molding future adults...
