GreatSchools Rating
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.

I loved all of the football games and rally's that we had. Our asb director did such an amazing job on really making my high school experience like the movies. But I feel like it's hard for you to come out of your shell there because you have to be well known to get certain positions which I think is unfair. Because if someone is more qualified than another they should get the position. But throughout all of my four years it was a really good high school experience and I will miss is a lot.

It was a normal experience. It was a very good school. I felt safe. It had many sports to choose from and I participated in softball for two years. The teacher are mostly nice and they seem to care about you. You can ask them for help when you need it.

From my personal experience Orange vista was located in a brand new district for me and I was immediately greeted with open arms. My worse experience was when I lost CIF playing for my soccer team. I'd like to see the food change to something more appealing.

Horrible the teachers don't challenge students as well they don't do anything for the students that are working hard on test scores and they praise students who shouldn't be praised. The school will judge you for not being high on the social ladder and if you are different you're considered a freak...
