Samohi has great spirit, great diversity, and great programs. There is something for everyone, and every student can find a sense of belonging by associating with a program, a club, or a sport that interests him or her.
Samohi has always offered so much to it's student. Since I can remember when I attended in the early 80's. From Arts to sports, clubs tutors, etc. We are now in the midst of so many cuts that all of these programs are in jeopardy.
I love that we have the houses, because the kids have a staff that will know who they are for the next four years.
I am a grandparent of one current student and two recent graduates of Samo High. I know many students who are grads. They are attending great colleges, and have all the educational advantages of any private school I've heard of. It is a school and an educational system to be proud of.
