Jesse M. Bethel High School

This school is a very GREAT school. My daughter came from a school in Benicia and her grades have improved. She usually had drama everyday with other girls, getting bullied and fighting all the time. Since my daughter came to Bethel we have had no such problems. Her GPA has improved 100% as well as her confidence in participating. I Have full communication with all of her teachers every friday and the school principal. Her medical is taken care of and I feel great knowing my daughter is at this school. I also have a great relationship with the campuss supervisors and I highly recommend sending your child to this school

This school is horrible. Very few good teachers. Mr. Garrison is definitely the best teacher at this school. Without him this school would be absolutely nothing. The principal, vice principal, and entire administration are uneducated, and do not do their job correctly, or at all for that matter. Mr. Garrison should be the principal of this school. If you can, do not send your children here. The Math Department is also horrible, the teachers do not teach well and out of the entire department only 1 or 2 teachers teach. The rest answer questions with questions, which is not helpful to the kids at all.

Despite the serious lack of funding & Large class sizes,JBHS is a great school with caring teachers.

I have 2 kids going to this school and so far I'm very confident on their progress, I have contact with teachers and staff, I get progres reports without any problems. And so far they are doing good.

Aweful! Very poor feedback to parents from teachers. Lucky to recieve grades from administration once a year. Violent campus. If you care about your kids, don't send them here.

I attend Jesse Bethel as a junior, and I know a lot of people think Bethel is a bad school and a bad environment but honestly it really isn't. A lot of students are involved in the school activities like sports, band, leadership, yearbook, and clubs. As long as the students choose the right friends then their high school experience will be one to remember. Even if your child doesn't seem like they're hanging out with the right crowd, you can't choose their friends. Many upperclassmen help out freshmen because of Link Crew. Leadership students are very involved with the school, and do much more than others credit for. I love Bethel, and trust me, I would never choose to attend another school.

The quality of academic programs offer at Bethel is making progress. Parent involvement is limited. The school can be no better than what parents make it. Get involved parents!
