I really enjoy going to Apollo! The teachers are very kind and helpful, and the lunches are pretty good. Extracurriculars and school-hosted activities are well-planned and fun. Overall, a really good atmosphere.

Apollo is full of people from people from all walks of life - different races, ethnicities, religions, political stand points and socioeconomic status. This is a very valuable experience for all students because it teaches them to think about the world in a way that considers all people - not just the ones who look and think like them. All schools have their issues, but I think that those things are minor when it comes to the atmosphere the school has. Apollo does not have the best test scores and suffers from large class sizes, but teachers, administrators and students exude an energy to everyone that enters that you are cared about here.
I graduated from Apollo in 2009- then it was a standard public high school. Then we were on a "modular" schedule so we would have classes only on certain days of the week which simulated a college schedule. If taken advantage of appropriately, it helped with college preparedness. Teachers were average- cared about their students but still, average public school teachers. Very diverse population. Plenty of opportunity for activities and sports though the sports teams were well below average in performance.
