The teacher and staff are for the most part very nice, I had only one really bad experience with a teacher. With that being said there is a ton of anti lgbtq+ sentiment and the students there are atrocious. there is a big smoking problem, everyone is rude, i have been hit three times in the parking lot of the school and most kids do no consider other people whenever they do things so many people cause large issues.

Spanish Springs Highschool has always been the school I was going to from when I was young. I grew up across the street from the school. when I first started going to school here in 2021 it was rough because I was scared and everyone was new. I've been in JROTC here for all four years. I love it because I've met so many kind people and people that will help me with anything. I hate it because there are people that are rude and don't want to be around you. I learned how to get around them and deal with them. I've met many people outside of JROTC. some are chill, some are rude and not my cup of tea. I'm in ceramics so I enjoy it because I put my artistic abilities to work. everyone in that class are super kind and with give you nothing but honesty. there have been threats at the school, but the school handled it perfectly and made sure we were safe throughout the day. I'm little bit excited to leave this school, but at the same time I'm not because I've met so many great people.

I really enjoyed my time at this high school, however I am so ready to be done now. I don't know if that has anything to do with the school or if that's just me but I want out. I like all my friends, but I think at a certain point it all just becomes too much. My least favorite thing of senior year is the fact that I have to be enrolled in at least five classes. I don't need all those credits to graduate so right now some of my classes seem pretty useless and it makes me not want to be at school.

This school is an absolute disaster and it all starts with Principal Sean Hall. He is a bully, gas lighter and known homophobe. He is the exact opposite of the type of leader you’d want for a school and has caused several teachers to quit because he is so miserable to be around. The teachers are laz...

I had two kids attend this school 10 years apart. Both participated in extracurricular activities and AP courses. One is successful in their chosen trade and the other is attending the local University. High School is difficult in the best of times. Principal Sean hall has always been approachable a...

Several experiences where staff is rude and unprofessional and discriminative towards certain students and rude and unprofessional with parents as well do not recommend the school if you have a choice
9/19/2022
Horrible, new Principal Sean Hall is the worst leader a school could ask for. If you want your student to be bullied with a leader, teachers and coaches that do nothing about it, enroll them here. This school and WCSD have got to be the worst place for your child to get a good education in a healthy...
