Rating 3 out of 5 49 reviews
It is an okay school. There are a variety of sports for students to play. There is an after school program for juniors and seniors called Clinical Medical Assistant for those who want to see what it is like being in the medical field. The teachers here are 50/50. There are teachers who just assign work, some teachers do lectures then assign work (mostly the science teachers, and teachers who are not so great at explaining. Most of the teachers here are understanding and willing to take in late work.
I believe that this school district can handle things much better. I personally understand that funds are low and that money can be tight especially here in Vallejo but there should be no excuse for there not to be any soap in the bathrooms. 2 Out of 5 bathrooms here at Jesse M. Bethel HS are the only ones functioning. And only being allowed to go to the bathroom at lunch or our breaks is horrendous, The lines of hundreds of girls needing to use the bathroom is horrible. Although these are mostly bathroom issues it still goes to the district. Most of the buildings are falling apart and smell like toxic waste. There is a constant smell around our campuses because of our poor plumbing and not only that we also have incredibly slow technology.
My experience with VCUSD has been mediocre for a couple reasons. First, the schools I have attended were very limited in terms of electives and extracurricular activities. I currently attend Vallejo High School and there are not many electives that students can choose from. I would like to see more options for students with electives. Another issue I have had with VCUSD is the process of transferring. On different occasions of trying to move schools, VCUSD has made it clear that they take too much time and do not usually give the answers you want.
