The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This school has been really great. Outstanding academics and great sports programs. Facilities could use some upgrades, but overall great experience.

Not a terrible school but I do wish there was more consistency within department. You're likely hood to get an A entirely depends on your teachers as they all have different extra credit and grading policies. Out sports aren't bad but definitely not the best so do with that info as you will. I know they are building a new football stadium next year so that should be really cool for our incoming classes

The best part about Capistrano Valley High School is that there are so many possibilities for success. There are many classes to choose from, whether it is honors, AP, or regular. There are so many sports opportunities as well and more than enough to choose from. My worst experience is when there are different smells around the school once in a while. I would like to see more cleanliness of the school and better resources that help support our school.
The Math an me English Departments have great teachers. Overall the school has been great but the AVID program is just not effective. This is disappointing as proper support is what these kids need.
