Has everything needed and countless of opportunities. The only bad in my opinion would be, well none exactly to say. Able to get great scores, countless of chances to apply for programs that help for college and future opportunities. Easy school in my opinion, so the only real negative thing is my boredom. Just, constantly bored.

When I first enrolled in Sierra Linda I was junior and immediately all the teachers and staff were very welcoming and helpful. I am usually a very she student but when it came to this school I was surprised how comfortable I was and how easy it was to ask for help and make friends. I was able to join golf and pass all my classes because I knew if I needed it I had my teachers and coaches support when it came to my education.

Horrible, as a student, they treated my family and I like trash. I see my friends having problems too. No one is trying to fix those problems. Not only that, but they're money hungry.
