I love the overall environment at Sequoia charter school. It has improved throughout all these years. I have been going there since I was in kindergarten. I have made so many memories and will continue to cherish those memories. The staff the students and the atmosphere is very adequate for the school. There isn't so many students so it feels like a community. You can always ask for help with your teachers and other staff and they are there every step of the way.

I have two sons that graduated from here. One had a 504 plan. They were very accommodating and helpful to have him be the most successful he could be.

Horrible. The school is toxic, the administration is toxic, a good number of the students are toxic. If you want your child to get a good education, do not walk, run away from this school and bring them to another school.

I give this rating a 1 star because the whole administration at the school is a disappointment and they are very late at giving information to parents.

I’m rating this a one star because this school needs new administration and teachers. They need qualified teachers. As a High School graduate from Sequoia Secondary I had no opportunities to go into College there was no support to help with any kind of enrollment to colleges and I wouldn’t recommend...
