Castro Valley High School

Posted November 8, 2008

This is my freshman year attending CVHS and already, I am extremely stressed out from the work. I'm still managing to get straight As, but it has become increasingly hard. I'd don't like how the school is too crowded, but it doesn't bother me much. I think the main thing CVHS needs to work on is the amount of work given to students, and teachers working personally with their students.

I think it is about time to update some of the parent opinions regarding CVHS. Under the leadership of the current principal, the school is strengthening its academics. I have also noticed that many very qualified teachers have joined the staff. Socially, my sophomore son tells me that CVHS is a place where he can be himself and feel great about it!

I think this is an outstanding school. My son has many special learning needs. The teachers have been wonderful in communicating and helping my son develop a plan to be successful in his studies.

I have 3 children who went to CVHS, the third a junior. I have seen the school go from an above average school to one that is just below average. It is too over-crowded and the administration, counselors and teachers are becoming less caring and responsive to the student's needs. It has become a school that places less emphasis in academic excellence to a school that is just trying to balance their budget. Money is such a focus that the school discourages students from taking classes at the community college, even though it can further their educational goals. Not happy with the school.
