My Freshman year was pretty awesome. At the beginnig i thought the school was unsafe and that it needed lots of work. (construction) But as i got more involved in school, my grades improved, the teachers were very incouraging and supporting throughout the whole year. There wasnt that much violence like the previous years. The school is improving alot like teachers ,activities, curriculims,sports, teachings and the schools appearence is looking way better. Personally i have improved alot thanks to San Jacinto High. i Started from a 2.89 and finished with a 4.0.

I am very unhappy with this school. The school's main priority is sports and the academics are inflexible. This school is not safe at all either. If you are a parent moving into the southern California area, please move to Murrieta and Temecula for better public schools. If your teenager is looking for preparation for the future, you aren't going to get it here.

Teachers seem to be adequate, classes are decent. School is run down. My daughter has been there 6 months and is very unhappy. I wish I would have done more research on this school, would have chosen somewhere else to buy a house. Considering home schooling. I feel guilty for making my daughter attend this school. The school's main focus is sports.

My son participated in football and track. I found the sports activities to be adequate although improvement is needed. One of my children was in the chess club and enjoyed it. I felt that the music program was good and liked the sports programs although the selection of sports was very limited.

My son had a quality freshman year. Staff is heavily tasked, yet makes time to work with parents. All teachers worked very well with us, and were instrumental keeping my son on the right track. San Jacinto High offers an outstanding college jump start program through Mt. San Jacinto College. Our son will be taking Intermediate college algebra, and has the potential to graduate with an Associate Degree. Its a rough school, however the district seems to be commited to making it as safe a campus as possible. Son is excelling acedemically, playing football, loves school. I think that says it all

If you want you child(ren) to go into college choose another school, move if you have to.

This school has been going through many changes. There are strong teachers at the school that have provided excellent support and caring to my children that have attended. There could be more programs for gifted students but they do have an AP program.

I am proud to be a teacher at San Jacinto High School! I currently have a niece and a nephew attending. In the past, we have had five nieces and nephews here. Our site is under construction and is in the process of being remodeled. During the growth process - we have growing pains and I am constantly impressed with the maturity of the students and the patience of the teachers!

My son is now at San Jacinto and my daughter just left San Jacinto and on to college. I feel that San Jacinto is on a recovery mode. Past years have not been all that great. New district staff has started to focus on the issues that needed to be addressed. I feel that the next few years will be good for San Jacinto High. They have built more grammer schools and giving the high school a new face lift. Acadimics have also been addressed this year. I feel very confident that San Jacinto will be a geat school for our childen. Keep the good work up staff and District.
