The best parts about my experience with attending La Quinta High School include building relationships with my classmates and teachers, gaining hands-on experience in my STEM classes, and having a supported dance department.
5/31/2024
As a student there, they push everyone to reach their highest potential. Also, the teachers always connect with the student and make sure that their classrooms are always a safe environment. La Quinta is a good school that helped motivate me and my friends get into great schools and to secure our futures.

I would love to see the campus safety gates to surround the entire school with no gaps or open gates for people to walk onto campus. I attended this same school 30 years ago and still love it. There is so many cultures and types of people. Go Aztecs!
