My school is amazing. It is a small community that works together and greatly enriches their students. I am beyond grateful to attend this school, however I think our attendance at sports games could improve, along with involvement from administrators.

I loved the safety of the school and the size, you know everyone there. The campus has a beautiful view of the ocean and the facilities are well kept. The teachers are overall really good and support students. I would like to see some facilities updated because some of it is a little outdated, also more bathrooms on campus would be nice.

I love Laguna Beach High School because it gives students the proper college readiness and advise that they need. The teachers are nice, and the staff cares about their students. The music program and visual arts program is very nice as well.

It would be very cavalier to say Laguna Beach HS is a country club but my observation has been that pa...

Bottom line: This school with all its money and beauty is horrible unless you are looking to be unsuccess in anything but sports or arts. There is absolutely no encouragement what so ever to be strong in academics. The lack of encouragement causes the students in this school to simply not care eithe...
