Canyon High School Reviews
Rating 4 out of 5 431 reviews
The first thing I learned when I started school at CHS was that anyone is welcome anywhere! The staff and faculty are super welcoming to new students, previous students, and students that are currently enrolled. Everyone in Canyon does their part to keep the Canyon High reputation to a high standard. The traditions are amazing and there is so much school spirit throughout the town. Canyon High is known for its incredible sportsmanship on the field or court, humbleness, and welcoming of all who come to school. My time at Canyon High has brought so many great memories and I have made so many friends through clubs, sports, and other extracurriculars. Anyone who attends CHS would tell you that the amazing staff and teachers push you to be the best you can be, and always want you to excel in all parts of the school. The staff is very motivating and kind to every student.
Canyon High School is a well-established school filled with teachers that actually want to see you succeed and classmates that you could get into friendly terms with, possibly beyond the high school curriculum. There's a sense of community when you attend this school, whether it's from sports, music, art, general classes, and much more all over CHS. If there was anything that the high school could improve on for the future classes of students, it would be to give more elaboration on what students could do early on to help them solidify their choice in career and give them some resources to see if they really want to go into their field of choice. The school could also try giving classmates motivation to enjoy learning like I did, however any solution won't make everyone attending want to learn, so it would best to find what's most optimal. Overall, love this school and the memories I've made when attending, and I thank those that have had a hand in making this a great school.
Canyon High School is quite the school. Although the teachers and academics might not be the most outstanding, the overall spirit and culture of the school is one of the most pleasant ones I've seen. Teachers are kind and supportive, the administration and staff keep the grounds and worksites very tidy and well kept; most notably, however, is the wide assortment of not just clubs, but also sports and other academic programs which are seldom available to people in this part of the state.
