My experience at castlemont has been great. I love the school spirit. The teachers are very emotionally connected with the students and always push them to do their work and never get lazy. The worst part about the school is the school fights and the lack of security around the school.

I love how accessible resources were and how easy it was to get connected to someone who could help you with your struggles. I loved all the opportunities to make money within the school community. I believe it catered and aided to the social disadvantages that people living is high crime rate areas like East Oakland. I did not like the cleanliness in the routine restocking of our bathrooms. I did not like that most of the time we were told about school events on such short notice.

I have been going to Castlemont high school since my freshman year and I have for the most part enjoyed my experience attending this school. throughout the years of my going to CHS I've met new people and became closer to some of my friends by being apart of the CHS close community. I have made bonds with teachers and staff members that have helped my school experience better. Two of the strongest traits that Castlemont High School students have is creativity and expressing themselves. Castlemont high school has one of the strongest communities in the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD).
