Crean Lutheran High School

I am currently enrolled in this school and honestly, its horrible. The teachers do not teach the material in a timely mannor and they all cram in tests at the last minute. The technology is terrible and the school constantly prides themselves on it but in reality, its awful. The staff and teachers try to be their students best friends but instead of doing that, the teachers should be educating and preparing their students for their future academic career. Also, many teachers are coaches as well and they constantly favor their student athletes over the kids that do not play the sport that the teacher coaches. I do not look up to these teachers which to me, they do not demonstrate strong leadership. More than half of the school complains about how much they do not like the school and it makes it seem like a prison rather than a school. Also, there is a strong Asian population in the school(which is great) but they tend to sleep in class and act like they don't care about school. The teacher's don't even care, which is very distracting. High school is supposed to be a time to remember, but i constantly wish I was at a different school and I genuinely hate the school.

I believe there is always room for improvement or I would have given CLHS all 5 stars. Crean has been an excellent school for my now senior son. The academiccurriculum, attentive teachers and staff, sports program, clubs, school activities and parent involvement are all meshed into a safe and caring Christian enviornment. The Best High School In Orange County.

CLHS is an amazing Christ-centered, academic school, complete with brave Principal/staff leadership which is not afraid to make tough decisions to ensure the safety & significance for each of our students. I have personally witnessed teachers going above & beyond the call of duty to meet the personal needs of the students by giving grace and providing very creative resources. Our coaches/teachers love our kids. We have daily worship/Chapel services which put focus on Jesus for our salvation and making daily choices. And our next priority is to provide a challenging and well-rounded academic curriculum, again recognizing the needs of those who learn differently. During the 4 years which we have been a part of this school FAMILY, we are continuously delighted by our parent participation among each of our athletic teams and fundraising efforts. I highly recommend that you schedule a visit at Crean Lutheran to see for yourself that we truly Proclaim Jesus Christ through Excellence in Education, and that each of our students is given an opportunity to become change agents within their community and world as a whole. This is an awesome school - come check us out!

I was a student here and I cannot say this school is a good school. The wireless connection is horrible and sometimes it gets disconnected. So whenever students take online test, they sometimes have to redo it. Also, from what I see in classrooms, most of the students use their laptops to play games or do other things during class time. It is hard to concentrate during class time when the atmosphere is not focused on studying but playing around. Also, I am not satisfied with how the teachers deal with their students because they sometimes treat students with aggressive tone (This is what I felt). Plus the teachers aren't proficient at teaching. This school has many things to improve in order to get good reviews from the students and parents.

I am a student at this school and I absolutely cannot stand it. They tell you they have the most up to date technology when in reality, students have trouble connecting to the internet all the time. The teachers and staff only care about getting more students. Only a few teachers are not bitter when it comes to teaching. The teachers need to learn to take their stress out in a healthy way and not out on the students. If you send your kid here, there is an 80% chance they will be miserable here

Our teen is entering her third year at CLHS. It is a wonderful environment for learning and for personal development. The staff and teachers are devoted to the students. I highly recommend Crean any parent.

New High School with small classrooms but very up to date with technology. My son is enjoying being a freshman and using his laptop in class.
