I am currently a senior here and have been attending since sophomore year. This skill is founded on great principles and really focuses on our education. I absolutely love this school and will miss it once I leave. The teachers are always helpful and make learning interesting. It has a great vibe that everyone can just be able to get along with one another. Our motto, " Where Champions are Made!"
I love my school. I am currently a senior at Olympian high school and a student since the first day its wings opened. I will remain an Eagle for life! We are new but we are well known. Teachers are amazing, staff makes sure we are safe and we are all motivated to keep the school having a great stature in our society. The classes are challenging but teachers encourage and commit in working with their students. Each year that had passed since I first came, it just got better. This year, I have great teachers and I love learning. I will miss Olympian once I graduate but surely, we are the first four year students at OHS! I am an Eagle for life.
I am currently a senior student of Olympian High and I absolutely love my school. I have attended Olympian High ever since the school first opened in 2006. School is like a second home and I really think that students of Olympian do not mind having to come to school everyday. All the students and teachers make the atmosphere really friendly and calm. There is not any scandalous drama like there is in other schools. The students are really encouraged to do their best and I know for a fact that almost every student of the senior class is enrolled in at least one advanced placement class. As a student, I feel a little overwhelmed sometimes but overall my experience at Olympian has been positive. GO EAGLES!!!!!!!! GO ACADEMIC LEAGUE!!!!!!!!
We enrolled our son here rather reluctantly and have been pleasantly surprised at how well the school is run, how well parents/tachers communicate and how the use of technology is encouraged. From 'MY Gradebook.com' to personal emails, we are always able to check up on what's going on.
Im am a senior at this school right now & I've been going here since sophomore year. I am confident to say that this school is the best highschool your sons/daughters would ever go to. Every class offers a high-quality education that I can not even compare to other schools in the district. All of my teachers are very helpful and tries to get to know me in a more personal level that actually ensures my success in their classes. Also, with a principal like Mr. Devore, I am sure that there are gonna be more successful students that this school would produce in the future.I have a great respect for Mr. Devore not only because of how he outstandingly does his job but because of how he shows sincerity and concern in the success of every student.
This is a great school - principal and staff are dedicate to supporting all students to become ready and ABLE to succeed in a 4 yr college, if they choose to go. First school in district to ever score a 6/0 in WASC accreditation; the accreditation team said 'this school would be a model school for any high school wanting to earn a 6/0 score!'
I enrolled my son at this school this year of 2009. I rated this school excellent because from the receptionist all the way up to the principal, they showed so much concern. I am very grateful that I enrolled my son to this school. The school curriculum and its teachers are great. Its students are well mannered. My overall rating of olympian is 'it is the best among the rests'. Olympian is unique, it is nestled in country atmosphere, where students can focus more on their studies. The teachers deserve to be commended, as well as mr. Devore, the principal, and the vice principal, Ms. Leano. She is great and super. She made sure students are not left behind. Great school
great school with great leadership
As a senior of this high school, I am really proud to be an Olympian eagle. We engage ourselves to become prepared for college and strengthen our college readiness skills and Habits of Mind. Every few months every teacher is uniform in teaching the students to practice the college readiness skills. These include practicing summary, evaluation, analyzing, describing, and synthesizing. Every student is to become familiarized in their Habits of Mind which consists of metacognition, intellectual peserverance and also intellectual curiousity. Although Olympian is a small school, it will become into a great school followed by great morals and values. The staff members will try to assure and fulfill the mission statement of the school. very graduate of Olympian High School will qualify and be academically ready for success in a four year college or university.' Olympian High School- 'Where champions are made.'
great school... good teachers,students, sports , and everything else go eagles
