Excellent school. Something for everyone. My freshman has had a great experience in honors classes, sports, and band. I highly recommend it to families who care about a place where their kids can be well-rounded and cared about.
The EPI program is the best program offered at thi school under the category of preparing you for your future!
I really like this school! Honestly, I was really surprised how good El Camino is. I originally was in Churchill Middle School's IB program. I was fed up with all the busy work and fierce competition, and I decided not to go to Mira Loma. It's true that about half the students have mediocre grades, but there are a lot of students who do care and work hard for what they have. There are also many opportunities, including the Eagle Polytechnic Institute, which is excellent for engineers-to-be, plenty of sports & clubs, and AP/honors classes. The math and history departments are excellent while the science and English department could use a lot of improvement. The electives teachers are also very good, like the band teacher and drama teacher. Of course, like at any school, there will be brilliant teachers and the lazy ones who don't teach anything. Overall, this is a good school that hasn't released its full potential yet mostly because of the students themselves.
love this school. It is the best. the teachers do their best to help the students to prosper and grow. even though we are not the richest school we are blessed with creative teachers that can make it work.
I'm a teacher/Alumni of this school. ECHS is Consistently one of the best schools in San Juan. It boasts a rich culture that encourages students to participate in Sports, Performing Arts, and various other extra curriculars. Only draw back that I see is that the school is the second largest, one of the oldest, and probably most out of date (in technology) in San Juan. The staff work hard to maintain a helpful, equitable, and SAFE school.
I really like attending this school, my grades have improved drastically.
High AP test scores; good community, great extracurriculars, great kids!
Great learning atmosphere for the young adults. Lots of clubs, sports and activities to keep them busy. Awsome stepping stone to college and life.
On the contrary the school officials are wonderful, the school consistantly ranks in the highest area of test scores in the state. Great school!
My son is new to El Camino and I have found school officials to be somewhat rude and unhelpful. On the four different occasions I've interacted with EC administration I found them to extremely disinterested in helping. On a brighter note, my son does seem to like his teachers.
