Niche Reviews
6/19/2024
The teachers and faculty at the school have been very helpful in preparing students for college. However, the campus could use some work as there is little greenery outside of the field. The administration has also been making questionable choices, ranging from the sound of the bell to the choice of purchasing new lunch tables.
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.
5/23/2024
La Quinta overall is a very great school, albeit very competitive. Students here are striving for academic success for the most part, so it can be very challenging to stand out and put yourself out there at times. However, I would say the school spirit and community is very inclusive. Teachers and staff are also very friendly in my experience.

School seems well organized and divides students up by alphabet for counselors to ensur...

This school has many good teachers and many teachers that are just going through the motions. The administration is uninvolved with the students. The principal maybe knows the names of 50 student. The principal and the majority of his supporting staff are unsupportive of the teachers when they ask f...
