The school is great! They have a great staff that genuinely care about their students and they want the best for them. Mr. Miller does great with trying to create fun activities for the students, and they are great with helping students get their credits. I personally went from failing and possibly looking at becoming a super senior to graduating early! Thank you to all the staff, especially Mrs. Trump, Mrs. Jane, Mr. Boyle, and of course Mr. Miller for pushing me and helping me!

Today I am proud to say that I am a Desert Hills Highscool graduate and it is all thanks to the wonderful staff and teachers at this school.
When public highschool failed me and lacked in giving me the right attention, drive, and over all gave up on me when I struggled to keep pace, this school really took its time to help me out and give me a new sense of hope for my future. Thank you to everyone who encouraged me a long the way at this caring highschool.
Note to parents who read bad reviews: The school has just undergone remodeling, so there is new paint in every class room, a new multimedia

This was one of the worst schools I have ever gone to. They make it seem so nice and welcoming but I promise you it is all a joke. The school is honestly so ghetto. They have no good programs. Please don't waste your time here, take your kids to a regular public school. My entire math class here was watching Breaking Bad for 2 blocks. They trap you in with their block schedules so it makes it impossible to try and leave half way through the year.

My children go to this school. I am excited my girls will graduate already having a few college classes already! I love the opportunities they have had in student council but it seems many of the responsibilities that were teaching them to run a business are being taken away. I hope they get the yearbook back on track and I cannot wait to see prom and graduation. The website is looking much cleaner but still not as functional as it should be for a Leona company that has been around so long! Great GREAT staff right now. It seems the teacher bullying my daughter has stopped and that the new school

My daughter started out here and was doing excellent in classes and earning credits towards college. Somewhere down the line things went downhill and they were no longer doing the dual courses offered, there were more drugs, fighting and uncontrollable kids, teachers left, and one day to the next the principal was gone and replaced. Absolutely NO communication and right before school started this year, we found out they would no longer be providing transportation. WE DID NOT GET THIS INFORMATION FROM THE SCHOOL ITSELF .
