Casa Grande High School

I think Casa Grande is one of the best schools around. Although we have a limited budget, and our campus might not be as pretty as some would like, most teachers would give anything to see their students excel and succeed, and help figure out possibilities for the future as well as iron out the necessary details in order to achieve those. Casa is not individually oriented; the teachers continually push, even those who do not immerse themselves in academics, to try and be successful in their own way. Great school =]

I like my school and find that most of the time the teachers are better than Petaluma High and that I really do learn alot from them. I think what I learn at Casa will help me alot in my life.

I am quite impressed with the effort made by most of the teachers at Casa. They have several exceptional teachers in Math and Science, although their intorductory classes have suffered since the inception of NCLB and the standards tests. The Ac Dec Team is a real marvel. Mr. Pillsbury, Ms. Cottle and Mr. Creighton are exceptional teahcers. Any effort you can make to get your child into their classes will be worthwhile. I firmly believe that if they had the budget for it they could be one og=f the best schools in Northern California.

The average student is bypassed. Impossible to get any help either as a parent or for a student. Overall disappointment

The Academic Decathlon team regularly wins statewide competitons and the instructor who runs the program, Rick Pillsbury is top notch. The Wildlife program run by Mr. Fir is exceptional as well and has done much to focus attention on Petaluma's streams and rivers.

The honors and AP programs are first rate. The teachers are stellar and the attention that they pay to each student is impressive.
