Steele Canyon is a welcoming school that accepts students for who they are. There are a lot of student activities and club and a lot of community events. The teachers are dedicated and knowledgeable. I'd like to see the traffic situation fixed.
2/2/2025
The arts and academics of the school are definitely better than the sports. I wish there was a wider variety of electives that were science related. I feel like I have to rely on outside activities for my interests. Also the traffic is really bad.

My experience at Steele Canyon high school has been amazing. I would truly call it a blessing. I met so many people who have really impacted my life and changed my perspective on many things. I find it hard to tell you about anything that is bad with the school because all of the good things outweigh them. My classes truly challenge me and i'm able to have fun as I learn, along with all the extracurriculars that they provide, which have helped me come out out of my comfort zone. overall my experience I still Canyon high school so far has been one of the best experiences I've had.

My daughter now sophomore loves Steele Canyon and us parents do too :)
6/5/2019
Average school overall, including academically. It's not a bad school - but it's not a great school. It doesn't stand out. They're great at marketing themselves to SEEM fantastic, but they're really just average. Just another regular school - nothing special.

I have a student currently attending Steele and I am very disappointing. This school is pathetic academically and unimpressive in every other facet.
6/3/2016
I have two students, soon to be three at Steele. My two are thriving at Steele academically, they both participate in sports/team opportunities like track, swim, cheer and football. They love it!!!Steele Canyon has been a positive educational experience for us and I couldn't be happier!!!
