GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

El Diamante is not really ethnically diverse. It's an average high school. The academics are really good, the teachers are pretty nice. Everything is great.

My over all experience at El Diamante High school has been good and bad. You may be wondering why bad ? well I have had ups and downs with the school nothing I can't handle by bad I mean I just get over stress and feel like we don't get all these details about our future as much as I had thought. By good I mean the staff is very encouraging and involved in making sure we are attending classes we are supposed to attend in order to get into the colleges we want.

El Diamante was supposed to be a promising school but instead it was full of awful experiences not only for me but for others. You can easily fall through the cracks. If you don't make the grades, they encourage you to leave so they don't look bad with the overall student body grades. The teachers c...
