I attended this school for a couple of months and it helped me do a 180. It got me back on track and I miss attending it. The students and staff were fabulous. Everyone was friendly. It was not a bad school.

this school is an excellent school it gives students a chance to graduate and gives them the same and better education than other schools.

I attended this High School, and I felt that it was one of the best schools around. The shorter school days made it easier to keep kids attention. There were only 300 students in th whole school which meant less fights, For the two years I attended there was only one fight. And that is with only one security guard. Unlike some of the bigger schools with actual school police who have at leastone fight a day.

As A former student at OHS, I am very proud to say that this school was one of the best schools that I have ecountered throughout my entire scholastic career.The teacher to student relationship is a very warm and comforting type. At the beggining of my enrollment at this school, it was very unsure to me,on weather I would like this school or not. I found out very quickly that this would be a great chance for me to excel in what I had not been able to accomplish at my previous school. This is a great school, and whoever is currently enrolled should be just as honored as I was to attend this school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) to test high school students' skills in English language arts and mathematics. The results for grade 10 students taking the test for the first time are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The CAHSEE is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of California. Students must pass all parts of the CAHSEE in order to graduate from high school. If they do not pass it the first time, students have multiple opportunities to retake the test. The goal is for all students to pass both sections of the test.
