Santa Fe Christian has been a phenomenal school to grow up in and has allowed me to build a strong base of education and structure for learning.

It's a good school. It has a beautiful campus and great teachers. You literally can not fail a class. Small class sizes and heavy emphasis and pressure on college.
5/11/2020
It's clear that the teachers here do genuinely care for you and want you to succeed. However, many of the students are more stuck-up and snobby and interested in partying and whatnot rather than actually pursuing the opportunities that are presented to them. The school itself isn't too diverse and the majority of the kids are from rich families. But on the other hand, the teachers do absolutely care and the academics are top-notch with an excellent sports program to boot.

I would never recommend this school based on my experiences over 7 years as a student. In line with other reviews, the quality of the teaching staff is inconsistent with some grossly unprepared. The more experienced ones rarely encouraged critical thinking but simple rote memorisation. However, my c...

I went to Santa Fe for 6 years as a student, and it was certainly a mixed bag. I had some genuinely good teachers. But I also had some really, really bad ones. Compared to other schools it's not very strong academically. Only half of my AP teachers were actually AP accredited. It's VERY cliquey. If...
