4/3/2025
My experience at Soquel high has not only been very positive, but marks a transitional and influential stage for not only me but for many students. High school plays a significant part in a person/students development and what they decide to do with their lives. During my time at Soquel I found my passion and what I want to do for the rest of my life because of the great resources and the support I received.

My overall experience has definitely taught me many solutions and techniques that I will need for future work and projects. Being able to be myself and share my ideas and experiences to peers.
8/31/2023
On the most part I would say Soquel is a pretty good school. The biggest issue I have is that the school lunches are not all that great, but at least during lunch where allowed to leave the campus, so most students leave for lunch.

Our son got all A's at Soquel High, but told us he didn't learn anything. He felt like the classes were two years behind. My husband and I tried talking to the councilor and principal, but they were no help at all and didn't care. We felt if our son continued he would not feel challenged and develp...
