I loved my time going to this school. My teachers are some of the best. I even moved outside the boundaries to go to this school my sophomore or junior year but got a variance so I could continue going to this school. I walked a mile and rode a city bus every day just go to school.

I had a really good experience at Cortez High School. The only thing I would add is more bathrooms because there are only a couple and most of the times they were closed.

It's a good school with friendly people, from sports to the Art, Dance and Choir shows. Cortez always has something fun going on to get everyone involved, try new things, and meet new people.

Cortez is great high school, they make sure their students have good grades
6/19/2022
Legit the worst staff, coaches, "administration" at a well recognized school, from cutting performing arts programs, to staff talking down on other programs, to the principal belittling staff in "wellness checks" or even belittling other administration to staff members. Favoritism is all around and...

Safety I don't think it's a good school safety wise.Educational wise I will give it a six

Cortez is a smaller campus where students are able to be involved in many clubs and sports. The student council is outstanding and soccer team has won several state championships!
