Very Sub-Par school without extracurricular activities. The variety of courses offered at this school is horrible and many teachers aren't willing to help. At one point I had to go to another teacher because the teacher I had refused to help me. That happened with several other students. There are great individual teachers such as Mr. Landis, Mr. Tait, Mrs. Walden, and Ms. Grant, but the school needs improvement as a whole.

I liked the diversity of American Canyon Middle School. They provided many opportunities for learning such as advanced classes, music/art classes, STEM classes.

Despite the fact this is the only high school I ever go to, this is no doubt the best. The school teaches a unique system called "Project Based Learning" in which a group of students will do projects and use real-life skills (collaboration, communication, etc.) to make the project a success! I know these skills will make me successful in the future. Also, there are lots of clubs and sports that you can join. One of my favorites are swimming and water polo! If I were to do it all over, I would automatically choose this school again because of the variety of classes & sports that make the learning environment vast and fun!
