It is my pleasure to write a review about High Bluff Academy. I joined this unique school in the summer of 2021. I taught French for 8 weeks, I was then asked to become part of the team in September of 2021, I happily accepted. I continue to teach French. I also teach English Support to my Chinese students.I am very proud to part of a team of superb teachers who are dedicated to their craft as well as their students. We are fortunate to have at the helm, a very hands-on director and staff, who make it seem seamless! Jill Duoto and her team run a very smooth and well organized school. Having taught

Taking classes here will surprise you. If you want your children and teachers to have an active interaction during class time, and improve their enthusiasm and self-confidence in learning, I highly recommend you to come here to go to school. Sophia made a qualitative leap in class here. Every AP course is full score.
There is great satisfaction in spirit and other aspects.
The principal and everyone working there will make you very happy and comfortable. Thanks again to the principal and teachers for their dedication and hard work. I hope you don’t miss a good opportunity, and I wish you luck

The best. Quality teachers, individualized or small classes, many options worth exploring, unmatched flexibility. Great leadership. My son took many classes there over the years and being at High Bluff Academy was key to his admission to a highly selective college.

We sent our daughter to High Bluff Academy for her senior year of high school. We have been very impressed with the personal attention given to our daughter in each of her courses by her instructors. The school helped our daughter put together a curriculum and schedule that fit her needs and also showed flexibility in her schedule when it was necessary. In my opinion, High Bluff Academy is a place to put kids on track and keep them on track by holding them accountable in small classrooms and by providing them support both during and outside of class. The owner of the school and the administration

I only worked there temporarily, but it was a good time. For a seemingly small school, they have quite a bit of variety of courses to offer students. I personally taught an official SAT prep course, as well as tutored a few students individually, and taught a calculus course 1-on-1 with another student.
The admin is knowledgeable, attentive, and thankfully encourages high rigor.

Our daughter attended a summer chemistry class at High Bluff and loved it so much that she wanted to enroll full time. Now that she has switched to High Bluff she has much more confidence and is a lot happier. The teachers are much more knowledgeable than our local (top ranked!) public school. They actually teach the material instead of relying on students to get help from expensive tutors. The small class sizes are helpful too. High Bluff has an active ASB and kids feel included. My daughter is learning more and is less stressed. The classes aren't easier or watered down, the teachers and environment

My son took Biology and Chemistry at High Bluff and it was a very positive experience from beginning to end. He has cerebral palsy and an IEP and the entire staff was extremely supportive and easy about any accommodations that were needed for him. Their flexibility and willingness to help was really great!!

My daughter had a great experience at High Bluff Academy. She enjoyed her chemistry instructor, and was able to understand the subject matter much better than in her class at Torrey Pines. Prior to signing her up for chemistry, I spoke with the owner who was extremely helpful as well.
