Overall, my experience with El Camino High School has been great, but not the best. Throughout my time here, there have been teachers who have been a great help in my learning and teach in an engaging way. However, there have been some teachers who weren’t as good. There were instances where this one teacher would straight up insult their students’ work instead of giving them ways to improve. Despite that, everyone from the staff to the students are friendly and generally very open-minded. Most people don’t care what you do as long as you aren’t hurting anyone.
One thing that I liked about El Camino was how they offered a the Middle College program. This allowed ,me to get ahead of my studies. Although I had to leave my high school behind, it was very beneficial!
My experience at El Camino High School overall was a positive experience. I expected going from a small middle school to a high school with tons of kids was going to be difficult, however, high school was enjoyable for the most part. There were many opportunities available for students to succeed such as extra tutoring hours, clubs, and sports. I chose to participate in Badminton and Tennis which I learned teamwork. In addition, becoming Animal Club president showed me what leadership is like. I had some helpful teachers throughout my years, however, there were certain ones that negatively impacted my personal experience. Every school has their flaws, however, El Camino High School could have handled certain situations better. Safety did not seem like their top concern by any means.
