My brother went to this school and it was ok.... but now most of the staff is not working well with parents. When a situation happens with a student, they need to be more supportive and help others.

Not a very good high school.. maybe it's changed since I've been there, but when I was there it was a joke.. I learned very little here, I learned a whole lot more at El Rancho middle school.

I had the best four years of high school anyone could ask for. This school offers International Baccalaureate, quite prestigious for a relatively small public high school.

I come here to support the Gourmet Food Trucks that are here every Tuesday from 5:00-8:00 pm. You can follow #CurbsideBites on twitter for the line up and they also have a page on facebook, I believe.

The trucks rotate, so if you see a truck you like, its best to try it in case they don't rotate back in.

The best way to enjoy a food truck is to come with friends or family, and "divide and conquer", where each person gets an item or 2 from a truck, meet up a the table and share a bite from each place.

Most trucks can offer utensils to cut your food, and there's plenty of

Clean campus and nice facilities. Vending machines available for people visiting outside of school time. Parking is close to fields and other facilities.
Three stars for the graffiti

Not sure were else to write a review on this one, but we went for the food trucks here.

We took our own table and chairs because we heard it gets crowded, which it did. Most places that have the food trucks come don't even bring out any tables and chairs at all. So it was great that they did that, but we knew we weren't getting their early and wanted to make sure we had a place to sit.

They had great trucks, they lines weren't too long, and the service was great. We even had a couple of Anaheim's finest (police officers) sit with us and have dinner. How cool!

Ahhh, high school. Ten years ago I graduated from Canyon High. It was an alright place. I was never a huge fan of school, but I can't really complain.

I would never review a school, but I wanted to put the word out that every Tuesday night they are featuring food trucks in the student parking lot from 5:30 - 9:00.

I went last night and the lineup of trucks was pretty good. If you live in the area and you like food trucks, you should go check it out one week. Some of the proceeds support the school band.

Here is the website of what trucks will be there each week:

On the ridiculous security called "random" tardy sweeps:
1) Day before the AP US History test!
2) Holding Cup of Noodle and a Monster in my hand, Late to school because late night cram.
3) Question by the security rent-a-cop about my school ID.
4) Showing him Michael Le, instead on Isaac S.
5) As I hassled him saying that I was even later to class now, I ignorantly pull the race card, even thought Asians are the model minority.

Moral of the Story:
Don't come to school looking like your hungover (I wasn't, just alittle bit high). As true with all profiling, dress nicely so
