I think Granada High is an alright school. It could be better and it could be worse. It is very safe, however they do not allow ambitious students to get ahead in courses, meaning if you are say taking geometry you are not allowed to take Alg II over the summer unless you really fight for it, and even then its still very difficult for them to approve credit for you.
I really like Granada High School. We have done allot of reasearch on schools and moved here to Livermore just because of Granada High. The teachers and staff respond to my calls and questions. The teachers update essembler weekly, which gives the parents and students information on grades. check out their website att www.granadhigh.com it is very impressive. There are a ton of clubs that your child can join and many many sports to choose from. Graada High pusses your child to succeed ,challenge yourself and look forward to college and a great employed future. Ask the kids, they are honest!
Granada was a middle of the road high school. If you want to graduate it's great. The honors english program is really good (excepting freshman honors in 2000) But the res tof the programs are terrible. Mr Scheffler is a great teacher. If you take any math/ science class by him you will learn things. Mr. Hart is great for english. He is intelligent and brings his points across in a clear manner, mixed with enough bitter humor to drive his point home. Every other teacher is a vast disappointment. .
I attended granada for four years until I graduated in 2004. It was definatly a wonderful experience. Almost all of my teachers were really involved in helping me be the best that I could be. I graduated with high honors, and was at the top of my class. I think that those kids that wanted to make something out of their education there could, and they did. If a student did not want to be involved there is no way to make them. Many teachers from Granada still inspire me to this day, and I still keep in contact.
