Nathaniel Narbonne Senior High School

. I don't know about the non magnet part of the school but, the math science magnet program is very good! The AP classes are good too, if you can't get in the magnet. Coming from Dodson M.S. gifted magnet, you will be put in Honors classes, which will raise your grade point average. lI honestly have no complaints for my childs freshman year.

I was very skeptical about putting my daughter in any public high school after being in private school all her life. But I have to say that she loves it and she does really well here! Her grades are great and she has made a lot of friends! The principal or some other staff member will call you daily and let you know what is going on, invite you to breakfast @ Narbonne, any problems that occurred that day, etc. They are on top of things! Narbonne High also has many different clubs and programs for kids to get involved in, I am very pleased with this school!

narbonne senior high is the greatest school so far for my kids, ive had them in two other different schools and none of those two worked out better than narbonne senior high. they graduated this year and they are both of to college already, so i think this is a perfect school for other students to be in, the staff is outstanding and their isnt any real threating violence in this school so this is great, this school is well prepared.the teachers know how to teach their students, so i will recomend this school to any parent that is looking into changing their kid to another school,their test scores are great, and in a good neighborhood

The Administration and Teachers don't seem to care. I am totally disappointed with this school!

The principal has changed this new school year (2006-2007) so hopefully he will be able to pull the teachers, his staff, the students and the parents together, and improve the school.

All three of my children graduated from Narbonne High. The school prepares students for college. My daughters were in the Math/Science Magnet and went on to graduate from UCLA. They returned to their alma mater and are now on the faculty. My son graduated from the Performing Arts Academy in 2005 and went on to CSU Fullerton. The Performing Arts Small Learning Community is outstanding. It provides a challenging academic program that integrates the arts. The numerous student performances are of the highest quality.

The test scores do not reflect the potential of this school. Parental involvement makes all the difference. If you are involved with your child's education, the resources are available at this school to complete with the best of any other high school's in the area. The advanced placement offerings are remarkable and the teachers are dedicated. Narbonne has sent many graduates to the top schools in the nation and created several generations of outstanding working professionals.
