"I was a student here and had over a 3.0 for all 4 years. I went off to CSUF and ended up having to take an extra 2 years of classes because I was so remedial. My counselor could not believe that I graduated HS especially with an above average GPA. Another parent commented on the grading system being based on work completion rather than tests and knowledge. They do this to pump the kids through the school, not caring if we actually learned anything besides how to get work done, which I guess works if you will be going into the janitorial or fast food industry. If you have the option and your child has high hopes for their future, try to use the open enrollment system and send them elsewhere."

"Santa Ana High School does offer a variety activities (academic and extracurricular), any student can easily find something that will interest him/her. Athletics, Performing Arts, and Academics are very balanced. It's curriculum if perfect for a college bound student since the required classes to graduate, are the minimum required classes by Cal States and UC's. Student's are expected to go beyond these expectations to ensure acceptance in the college of their choice. However, because of its location, Its grading system is designed to reward 'working' over 'learning'. Students are not being taught to think for themselves and become community leaders after graduation; they are being taught how to work and follow orders. Our smartest kids are being held back because of this ideal of 'Work. Don't think' A student can pass most classes by completing all their work, then by scoring 'A's' on all their tests."
