El Modena High School Reviews

It is a great school, this is my second year at El Modena High School and I really love it. Teachers here have some great skills, every one has a different way of folding information into our brains. Staff and faculty care a lot about us, there is always someone there to talk to if we need. Spirit is also evident here, we have the "Rowdy Rooters" which is an awesome group of students who make the school spirit rave in excitement. El Modena is where I found myself as a student, and a person.

There is nothing remarkable about the school. It is in essence a high school through and through. The teachers are kind and patient. The students are crass, but civil. Overall there isn't a thing I'd change, it's nothing special but there isn't anything wrong with it.

El Modena High was great to me , I am extremely grateful. My teachers were all committed to helping myself and classmates pass while also understanding the curriculum. I came into this school shy and not willing to further my academic experience. I am now leaving wanting to make a comfortable life for myself through education; because I now have an understanding of the true importance of education and its relationship to success.

At El Modena, I have taken 9 AP classes from freshman to senior year. My AP teachers are tough but teach well and I learned a lot while studying with them. However, for my regular classes, the level of teaching wasn't as high as the level my AP teachers taught at.

During my time at El Modena, I have had many teachers that positively impacted my experience. The teachers genuinely care about the students' learning and I never felt hesitant to ask them for help. The school offers many different classes and clubs that made my experience more enriching.

I found high school at El Modena to be a fun experience with exceptional Honors and AP teachers and a fun laid back atmosphere. I didn't experience any bullying nor did I see any like is shown in films. The Spirit Week events were also something to look forward to and I feel like El Modena does a better job at execution of such activities compared to other high schools.

I enjoy the teachers that care and enjoy the spirit we have. However, the only thing I would change is the enormous amount of dirty gum on our school floors. Our school looks a bit run down, but we have been doing much construction including a new science building and new football stadium. However, I wish they would fund it into other things such as new buildings replacing the portable buildings. I enjoy the school spirit we all have, and the inclusiveness of clubs and students.

El Modena High School is filled with great teachers, school spirit, and resources to make the ultimate high school experience! It is a wonderful community to learn, communicate, and thrive! With amazing school spirit, you will always feel like a part of El Modena. Go Vanguards!

El Modena was overall an incredible high school. Like all high schools, there will of course be a few intolerable students or teachers but there are also tons and tons of incredible individuals whom I'll never forget. My four years were stressful at times and insanely relieving at others. I don't regret anything and would happily relive it.

My time at ElModena has been one of the best, with their CTE pathways and excellent STEM program i was able to find a passion for engineering as well as explore other fields like criminal justice. Although the campus is old they have recently started construction on new more modern buildings. El Modena also has outstanding sports programs. I play on the women's water polo team and both years I have played we have made it into CIF semi-finals which is a drastic improvement from prior years. Besides water polo all the other sports on campus either go into CIF or end up winning league. A part of the sports teams is the scholar-athletes. Which continues to grow every year. Coaches push their students to have good grades as well as become mentors for them and help to lead them down a successful road.

I have had the most amazing experience at El Modena. The school is really all about the students, staff, and the school spirit. In seeing other schools, El Modena is a very inclusive school that wants everyone to participate in activities. Not only are the people amazing, but the academics are beyond amazing. There are so many great teachers, and there are so many programs students can be in to study almost anything. Our school does a great job of having a ton of programs, from art, to cooking, to medical studies, to digital design, to theater, the list goes on. I have made myself very involved at the school (dance, ASB, clubs, teachers, community service), which I believe has made my experience so amazing.

I transferred to El Modena my sophomore year. I did not attend at first because it is not the best school academically, but the social environment is very warm and I felt that I belonged to this school even though I transferred during my years in high school. I am very glad for transferring because I met friendly and loving teachers who would help me on my journey to college. They are very understanding and always available to talk, whether it's about schoolwork, situations at home, financial situations, or your personal life. I feel that the community of El Modena is very warming and even events like Spirit Week where the classes battle against each other give a feeling of unity and involvement. However, I feel that if the clubs were more active with students who cared more about community service and volunteering outside of school, I feel that it would be better.
