Best parts of my experience include the highly competitive sports teams, such as volleyball and track and the biomedical pathway.

La Jolla High School really sets you up for college and the kids enrolled int he school work very hard towards getting into a top university.

La Jolla is not only perfectly located in the world you can genuinely relax and enjoy each and every moment you spend there. It has a unique culture at the high school that I genuinely believe you wouldn't find anywhere else. The school has great academics and kind teachers. I will say that the majority of the math department at the school is terrible. I loved my experience at La Jolla High and wouldn't trade it for anything.

For children that are internally motivated and independent, LJHS would be a good fit. For students that need addi...

I would absolutely NOT recommend this high school for any person.

The counseling team was also ve...

There are some amazing loved godlike teachers and one that should never be near kids/in a classroom. I have loved my time here and as long as you stick to the right crowd and take the right classes, you will do fine. I got accommodations from teachers after my dad died and they were super understand...
