While I had qualms with the administration, they are out of the way enough that it is not commonly an issue. With the teachers I had, at worse they were mediocre, but the large majority of them were fantastic, incredibly knowledgeable, empathetic and passionate. My math and Physics teachers were a large reason why I have been successful, and the students would constantly praise them for making the class better. The teachers worked hard to improve the school, which has an undeserved bad reputation. The clubs were amazing, in my tenure at the school, I saw academic clubs form and have huge academic success, winning math and science competitions that other schools had dominated for a decade. The schools' diversity split is unbelievable, one of the highest in the US. The cultural, and social clubs had a huge reach, the Christian club giving speeches to hundreds of students every month. And in my time I saw the rise in student acceptances to prestigious institutions skyrocket!
First of all, the teachers here are absolutely fantastic. They're really supportive of their students and always go out of their way to help them succeed. Whether you're struggling with a concept or just want some extra guidance on a project, they're always there to lend a hand. And trust me, they really know their stuff - I've learned so much in my classes here.
But it's not just the academic side that's great - the extracurriculars and programs at Laguna Creek are top-notch too. The IB courses are so much fun and educational at the same time, and I've loved being a part of the academies. There are so many opportunities to get involved and try new things, and the school really encourages students to pursue their passions.
Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience at Laguna Creek. The teachers, programs, and overall atmosphere are all top-notch, and I feel really supported and challenged here.

As of 12/2022 Laguna Creek High School is terrible. The administration rarely returns phone calls to parents for questions or problems. A few teachers are rude to students and yell at them. There are multiple incidents of violence each week and there have been several incidents of guns being brought to school. My student said drugs were being sold in the bathrooms.
The racial tension and bullying at this school is pathetic and if the Elk Grove District doesn't do anything to correct these items, they will continue to get worse.
I cannot recommend this school to prospective parents and students.
