Preuss School UCSD Reviews
Rating 4.16 out of 5 317 reviews
This is a really great school! I am currently a sophomore and have had many great experiences. Although we aren’t widely known for our sports, we do offer a variety such as soccer, basketball, golf, etc. Preuss does provide more academically; they provide more advanced classes and prepare students for college. Since Preuss has a smaller population of students, it allows teachers to focus and actually help out students. All teachers are more than willing to help if needed. Also, the Preuss community is very open and active. There are a variety of clubs which put on multiple events for the school. If you are looking for an academically friendly school with a friendly community, the Preuss School UCSD is the school for you!
The Preuss School UC San Diego is an amazing, academically rigorous, and diverse school that helps children of struggling or lesser backgrounds, branch out so they may change their narrative and achieve success. Preuss's ethnically inclusive and celebratory nature of all their students' cultures, brings diversity and stands as a safe and understanding community for its students. And its rigorous curriculum helps their student's stand out to grant them more recognition by colleges.
This is my sixth year attending this school and It has only gotten worse. This school used to be fun, unique, and a great experience as a student, but growing up, the administration gets weaker and meaner, the students are losing control, and the whole schools' mission seems to be slowly drifting away from its original construction. I really enjoy many connections and interactions that I have had here, and I wouldn't change those for the world, but if I could go back in time, ultimately I would never put myself through this again and I would really want the real high school experience with other kids like me.
