Going to El dorado high school was the best choice I could have made. It is where I met some of my friends and where I was able to rekindle some friendships with some of my old friends. There were a ton of extra curriculars that a student could be a part of. The best part about attending El dorado high school was that it felt like a big family.

Best High School in the Orange County district. Students go on to attend UCLA, UC Irvine, UC San Diego, Stanford and Hardvard.

El Dorado is definitely a special school. El Dorado encourages spirit over status as in putting your connections with others, encouraging others above your own personal gain. I'm proud to attend El Dorado and would encourage anyone i know to come here in a heartbeat. My nephew transferred here and i've never seen him so alive and involved. There is no other school like el dorado.

I really like EDHS! Great teachers, and a comfortable environment to learn in. I'm having a better high school experience than my friends who chose surrounding high schools in the area.

Terrible. The school is getting worse each year in terms of its effectiveness in teaching, retention, and graduation. Look at the data. Also, they do not give parents a voice or encourage involvement. The school itself is full of bullies and complaints about safety are ignored. When something happen...
