I did great in sports, but I wish there would've been more help academically. I always had substitutes .

The best part of my experience at Silverado High School has been being president of M.E.Ch.A and hosting events for the club as well as being apart of AVID. The worst part of my experience has been the race riots that have broken out each year during my freshman and sophomore year. Something I would like to see change in school is the profiling of students by security due to the race riots.

The teachers were either very supportive and helpful or they did not care about the performance of their students.

Horrible school. The counselors and staff are very unprofessional. Don't want to do their job. Always passing a problem off to others. They don't speak to you in a professional manner at all. Very rude and disrespectful. If I had transportation my kids would not attend there.
