Castlemont is a good school overall, just isn't all about every student and race that attend yes they do culture week sometimes but it's not how they do others all they have is food but others they can have them doing hobbies and stuff related to theres...

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.
10/2/2019
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).
