A wonderful school....no complaints. Love the principal. Awesome kids and staff. I love the way they make the kids read daily. <3
This school is safe and have some very good teachers, but not enough great teachers. Some of them get pregnant or sick and we don't learn ANYTHING. And for example, after a teacher was absent for 2 weeks, they expect us to know the material that she DIDN'T teach and she gives us a test on it. What the heck? There's also a little bit or racism that goes on occasionally.
i hate this school so much the least motavated school ever the kids do things that should not be done we had drug dogs come in every classroom and check all of our backpacks its a scary school.
This school is very well secured by the staff, and I say keep up the good work.
My son attended school in the Snowline school district since fourth grade. It went from ok, to really bad before we managed to move to Temecula area, where he now see's just what a poor education he was receiving. The teachers don't really seem to care to teach, since their attitude seems to be that 'these kids' won't be going anywhere anyway. My son got great grades, and was the top of his class in all subjects. But when we relocated he was way behind his new classmates. It's a shame the area of the High Desert has been given over to the crime and low education expectations of it's relocated residents!
I had the best time of my life at Serrano when I was there from 03-07. It was a blast and obviously I got the best education in the high desert. I am at a four year university, and I know that the experiences, classes, and teachers that I went through and had all made this possible. They care at this high school which in some high schools is not the case. They push their students to strive for the best and help to make that happen. The faculty is a really big reason why I will always carry this pride of graduating from Serrano and calling it my high school. The faculty may be young but they definitely are not inexperienced. I am so fortunate to have been able to attend this high school and I will never forget why I love it so much!!!
Serrano is a good school with many dedicated teachers. They encourage the students to go to college and take them through the steps of getting into college. Yes, they show the students using the application process and class registration process of the local junior college but it is a good program that gets students in the right frame of mind for applying to colleges. I should know, I was a student there and guess what I am now attending a 4-yr university. Serrano's programs encourage students to be involved in the community and to pursue further education.
It doesn't look like a high school, but a big overgrown elementary campus. The teachers seem young and inexperienced. I think there is alot of nepitism here.
Serrano is very slow to interate students into mainstream America. They want all there students to go to junior colleges and they show lack of leadership in pushing a student to their potential. I believe every student should know and seek their options as to why they are attending high school. To make a better life beyond, Phelan.
I'm the parent one of student in this school,and older son graduated this school 10 years ago.Which I'm very proud of them because of this scool achievement,enthusiasm and restriction for the childrens behavior.of course made their opportunity to reach thire goal any desired university.As my son mentioned M.I.T. last week,and I think so too,It's because Serrano graduated kids will make happen!
