Throughout my four years at South Gate High School I have had countless opportunities to get ahead in life. The majority of my teachers have been great and take pride in their job. The staff are equally as friendly. The best part about South Gate is the college center with staff who push students to be the best they can be and pursue a higher education. I feel like I have been very well prepared for my next step in life because of them and I am forever grateful.

A school with a small campus, which does have events that occur from time to time which can be engaging. Mostly helpful with providing resources for students involving college information, programs, and internships. Though some of the teachers have a terrible grading scale and some grades are inputted by subs which can affect the GPA despite it being wrong.

My experience with South Gate high school for the most part has been amazing. When I first enrolled within a week I was able to find many new friends in my classmates, all coming from different backgrounds. On top of that the communities and environments that are created from the schools sports team are very friendly and welcoming to all.

I graduated from this school this year, and I thought my 4 years at South Gate were amazing. It's what you make of it. I am going to attend UCI, and from what a I know, a lot of students are going to UCs and Ivy Leagues as well. The valedictorian went to Brown University. I don't think bad schools p...

I love this school, they do care about our students. They offered workshops on financial aid. colleges, etc. They call home or email us reminding us about an event, if our kids have been absent, or a call just telling us our kids did good in that class. I have two boys in this high school one is in...
