7/8/2025
High school was a good experience, some of the best parts of high school were sports and school events. The worse parts are struggling in class or being by yourself and I would like to see people to be more involved with each other and helping get through high school.

Overall experience is 1000% good! I love this school and the people and how friendly the teachers are to their students. This school has given seniors many opportunities to get into a college and even to pay for their college.

Vanguard high school feels less like a school and more like a family. Everyone is welcoming, friendly, and resourceful. Vanguard has a variety of classes that I'm sure will check every box for future students. Overall, vanguard is home which welcomes all with open arms and provides the support, education, and safety a student might ever need.
