"I am very pleased that we have decided to send our daughter to High School in our neighborhood rather than trying to find ways to send her to other schools outside this community. I think parents put too much focus on test scores and busing and not enough on spending time with their kid and keeping them on track. Our daughter is doing great academically at MBHS and she is enjoying sports and spends time with friends that live near her house. She was apprehensive before coming here because of all the negative rumors she heard from people who have never been at MBHS. Not she is pleased she made this choice. MBHS is a safe environment and the diverity reflects the real world. This school has seen dramatic improvements in the last couple years and I think it will continue to improve opportunties for kids who go there."

"We have had all three of our children attend MBHS. Two have graduated and received academic scholarships to Brigham Young University. Mission Bay provided them with excellent preparation for college curriculum. There are many excellent teachers at the school who have inspired my children to be excited about learning. Just as important the school provided a friendly environment with a highly diverse student population. We are a neighborhood family, but our children have developed friendships with kids from all over the city. Special kudos to the sports programs at the school-all three children have been able to participate in the waterpolo and swim programs-all with supportive and enthusiastic coaches. Our new principal is full of energy and eager to improve programs that will make our school even better."

"I have had 3 children attend MBHS. Two have graduated and 1 is going to graduate this year. This school has been wonderful for my children. There is a friendly atmosphere on campus that might not be expected considering the varied ethnic makeup of the campus. The teachers have all been excellent, concerned, accessible and helpful. Our oldest son excelled in math inspired by great teachers. He graduated Magna Cum Laude and received scholarships. I have particularly been impressed by the seminar (now IB), English and computer engineering programs. My children participated in tennis, water polo and swimming despite being novice in these sports. Some schools would expect such high performance levels that novice players would not be welcome on the teams. Mission Bay seems to be a place where you are encouraged to participate and have fun growing and learning."

"MBHS offers a strong PTO with very involved parents as well as parent involvement in all the sports and arts programs. MBHS has just been accepted as an International Baccalaureate School as well as a magnate school for CAD and Marine Biology. This school is located next to a bay and offers a wonderful live marine lab experience. MBHS now offers a full music program as well as a full range of excellent sports programs. Note that they have the lowest student to computer ratio in the district. I have a Freshman and Senior who attend and have had a wonderful experience thus far. The new principal is a major plus and the counseling staff is great!"
