Overall good classes and staff. Some bullying issues and kids bringing weapons on campus but they were handled timely.

I graduated as Senior from Ranchview Highschool back in 2024. During all the four years that I went, it seemed as though there was no real form of school spirit to boost morality within the school and give students more of a will to learn until my final year at school. Even so, it was almost the bare minimum that was being given from the students and staff.

My teachers and school are great. I feel like my teachers really help me be the student Iam. The sacrifices the teachers make to do their job exceptionally well is amazing. The faculty also are great. My counselor has also helped me too. Im a Senior this year and Im sad because I actually will miss this school when I graduate because I feel like I belong there.
