The best parts of my experience at La Jolla High School are the teachers who care about their students success. and the school pride of being a viking. The worst part was when my teacher quit a month into the school year and I was left with a substitute teacher for the remainder of first semester.

Our school is very student friendly, we are close to the beach, and surrounded by great environment.

I got accommodations from teachers after my dad died and they were super understand...
