I don't know where people are getting the idea that every teacher is a joke! I spent 4 years at CHS and really liked most of my teachers. Yes, there are some less-than-stellar teachers out there, but my two personal least favorites have since left, and I found that the number of at least average-quality teachers was way higher than the bad ones. The IB program is great, and the lack of sports teams is a district thing - if you want more sports, keep the district from trying to cut things like swimming!
Well, as a parent of 3 students going through CHS I disagree with the most current parent comment. In the past, yes CHS has had a better reputation but now we have a new principal and things are definately looking up. Staff is more encouraged and students are happier. I believe if your student has a bad experience maybe it is the student not cooperating as well. You can never take the opinion of just your student. I have along history with this school and it is definately on its way back up to being 'the' school to attend
This school is the worst that I have seen in a long time. The teachers and the principal lack leadership and knowledge of discipline, children and accountability. The year my child went here was the worst year and hardest year of my life as well as hers. I would have been better off quitting my job to homeschool her. If I would have done that she would have achieved alot more than she did. This school needs better counselors, teachers and a principal.......the one's that are there are a joke!
I have had a pretty good, but not amazing, experience at this school. I would reccommend going into the IB program, because that's where you'll find all thr good teachers. I agree that rules can get a little ridiculous at times. If you have a choice, Olympia High is a waaaaaaaaay better school.
