"La Quinta High School is a great place to learn! The teacers are helpful, the students are wonderfully behaved and there are little to no vandalism/drug/bullying/sexual harassment/gang/violence issues. The courses offered are challenging but helful in preparing and aiding kids for college. You know how the stereotypical high school has nerds getting beat up by tough jocks? It doesn't happen here because being smart is cool and desired among students. It brings a level of friendly competition and motivation with the ultimate goal of getting to not just college, but university. You can learn a lot from your experiences here at LQ."

"LQ is still the best school. School spirit is high at Laquinta which tells you for generations they pass this along. Many schools lose this Spirit but not Laquinta. Glad to see they're still number 1. Their scores are great, the students are happy and the alumni still keep in touch. Go Mighty Aztecs!!!"

"why is our school so spectacular? one. we have the api of 864, and most of our students are at a disadvangtage. and on top of that we are one of the most spirited schools and we're great in baseball, tennis and badminton. and i don't have to go to school and get worried of getting shot :) its a disneyland at school."
