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.
ECHS is a very welcoming and spirited school. It has a wide range of student-led organizations, clubs, and events in the arts, sciences, and more! Staff members prioritize student success, learning, and safety above all else.
I had a decent experience at El Camino High School. Most of teachers and staff are supportive and put in a lot of effort to make sure their students succeed. There were some teachers who would leave after one year of teaching or leave in the middle of the year, for undisclosed reasons. The student body is diverse and everyone is kind. Regarding school activities, there are many opportunities in sports and clubs. Extracurriculars is what you make of it. The rallies and homecoming week are always a blast. However, I do wish they communicated more with their students about opportunities in the area and colleges. They could even send out a monthly newsletter to the parents and student regarding future events happening. Also, I wish they talked more about college and how to prepare for it, such as the SAT, ACT, and extracurriculars.
