Norco High school has great programs and is a comfortable environment where most students feel welcome :) I transfered here after one year at Ealanore Roosavelt and I am soo glad I switched. The only reason I have rated this school with four stars instead of five is because I find that there are a few teachers that do not care about student success or grades and are unwilling to help.
i am freshman 2015 class at Norco high, i start in varsity girls soccer, and am involved in FFA. Ive read all of these comments previous to me, and most of them are parents complaining about how they don't want to face that their children are screw ups. As a student who is highly involved in Norco, overall Norco is a good school, the security guards don't have favorites, the teachers only help students who are willing to work, and we have the higher class of people. the only way i could dis this school, is our chew problem. most teachers are aware and they do act against it, but some don't report it. i look forward to years and progression to come from norco high school. out of southern California, norco is one of the better ones.
i am a sophmore now at this school. i start varsity in football. i get no special treatment from security guards or teachers like some people think. i have to work just as hard, if not, harder then other students to keep my parents, coaches, and teachers happy. its a fun school. obviously we have some students that dont like the school or just dont care about school, but every school has some kids like that. norco high is one of the best schools in the CNUSD district. thankyou for reading this
I have never seen a school where the teachers just don't care about their students. I have a junior who is struggling in class and the only response I receive from the resource counselor is I told you to put him in the special ed classes. Whatever happened to trying to determine the reason for the poor grades and finding the best result. I can't believe that they only want to put him in a slow class so that there is no additional interaction. Incidentally, the child brought home a progress report and the grades have all improved but one...maybe his problem is not a result of academics. Come to find out, it appears to be my sole responsiblity to fix his grades and learning. I am working towards removing this child from this school. No child should be met year after year with uncaring teachers. After all, we are all aware that the teachers do not enter this vocation because of the pay.
Admitted spoiled from quality public schools in another state but my experience with Norco High School has been extremely poor. Started with multiple trips to the registrars office where the most common responses were I am new or I don't know or not my problem should have gotten xyz in the mail which we did not. Once registered to get the parent connect setup correctly took weeks and finally when I reached out to my daughters teachers less than half emailed or called me back. Never dealt with a school ever who teachers and staff were so disorganized, lazy, and unable to get the job done. I idealogically believe in a public school system but never have seen or experienced such a low quality of one.
this school is the best school in cnusd! whether in sports or in books we seem to rock it! the security guards do not have favorites!!they are all very friendly and can see the (illegal) things happening in front of them. they seem like they have favorites but they dont! those kids just seem to be more friendlier than others and talk to the security gurads more.. the counselers are soo great and helpful as well as staff! youu just have to be willing to learn about academics not only ffa or ag stuff... :)
Honestly, as a student here I've had some pretty great times with the FFA and stuff. But main problems are coming from the students. We're divied up into our cliques and ethnics. The school is WAY TO CROWDED! Waiting in line for lunch takes your entire break unless you are first in line. Alot of things get out of hand as in students using chew in class, and such on campus. Security chooses favorites and lets the students they know well do as they please. It's not very fair! FFA is a amazing thing to get into so try it!
i love norco high school because it has a great environment and everyone is always so friendly
I have a son that graduated in 08 and a daughter who is currently a sophomore. I really wish this school would get it's act together! Most of the faculty appear to be there to simply collect a paycheck. Security is seriously blind to the illegal activities in front of their faces. Unless your child is on a sports team or in the honors program...forget it. I am so disgusted with Norco High School. I am an involved parent whose kids do well academically, but god forbid they need help from a teacher or a guidance counselor. I could go on but will spare all.
i am student of norco high school and it's great school. this is my frist school in USA. but it's amazing school. Nice Owesome Romantic Cute Outstanding. school ever.
