Bear Creek Highschool is one of the most diverse schools in the stockton area. It has the biggest multil cutural festival and it has tons of community service events as well. There is also a large amount of offered classes, though some teachers may not be the best, there are multipel good teachers I personally enjoyed. In terms of sports, we also offer a lot of sports, and having been in two of the sports, I have had a really fun time.

In all honesty this school was pretty amazing, what I didn't like was how many fire alarms would go off every single day. The staff was always nice, everyone was so involving. You never felt left out unless you want to be. The school food was mid, but the salads so good never missed. Every one was so nice especially the office ladies and the lunch ladies. Teachers were pretty cool to, never had one that was bad but my year was when most of them retired, but they will be truly missed.

From all the negative comments everyone seems to make about Stockton, you would think it was a horrible school, but they have a beautiful campus, much like a community college, it is the nicest looking school in LUSD plus it is in a very good neighborhood, some people are just always negitive and ca...
