I think sports teams can be super competitive to get onto because the amount of kids at our school. I do love all the resources they always suggest to help us succeed.

The school has always had amazing school spirit and amazing people surrounding me. I was always able to get help from teachers and administrators when needed. There is nothing I would change about it too much besides maybe the teachers being more available and open to helping in certain situations. I felt very safe at this school.

The teachers at this school put their efforts into making sure their students are completing their assignments and using their resources. The teachers always show their support for their students.

However, when my daughter was a freshman at San Juan, I was able to clearly see the academics and programs that the school offered were...

Went here all 4 years of high school. It was pretty great academics wise. The teachers are all very understanding and helpful on the tough curriculum.
