#2 Best Places to Teach in Ventura County
Freshman: I love the Conejo Valley School District. If you are motivated and want to succeed, the administration and staff at the schools will assist you. There are also some really nice dual enrollment options available to those in middle school and high school. Most teachers want you to get better (on the off chance that they don’t, other staff and administration can help) - this was something which really helped me become the person I am today. Keep in mind - the effort you put in will be what you receive. You can work really hard and graduate high school with an associates degree or you can do put in as little effort as possible and pass high school. While there are definitely rooms to be improved upon, this school district is truly good.

#3 Best Places to Teach in Ventura County
Senior: All 3 of the schools I attended in Ventura Unified School District have been excellent in preparing me and inspiring me to go to college. The thing that strikes me the most as amazing is the dedication, passion, and support all of my teachers have. This is the reason I have been able to push myself to pursue a college education; because teachers have gone out of their way to make sure this happens if I tell them my goals. In high school, amazing opportunities have been given to me to help me with the exploration of my intended science major. I have never felt unsafe at a Ventura Unified School District campus, and I have always felt challenged with classes and homework, and I am amazed by the range of classes I have been able to take in my middle school and high school. I am very satisfied with VUSD and I will take all of the skills I have learned with me to university and my career!

#4 Best Places to Teach in Ventura County
Senior: Royal has a great Air Force Junior ROTC program that gives students the opportunity to serve their community. If students are interested in leading a team or interested in the military, the two ex-military instructors that teach it will be very supportive and fun teachers! The instructors also go out of their way to support their cadets if they want to go military or college. Very supportive!

Senior: Oxnard Union High School district is overall very good. They have teachers that genuinely care about their students and their success outside of high school. The staff encourage students to go to college and how important it is to earn a degree. The campuses are also pretty well done, they are all in the process of getting re beautified and they are looking great! Sports are an exciting event in the district, all the towns get involved and rival games are the best. Safety at all the schools is good they campus security everywhere watching students 24/7 and all exits are guarded. The Oxnard Union High School District are here for the students and their success, to make sure they have an awesome high school experience.

Niche User: I enjoyed the atmosphere of the classes and teachers while attending elementary school there. I would however like to see more emphasis on providing more resources for gifted students. There was a lack of higher level education beyond standard course work.

Senior: Santa Paula High school isn't nothing special, but from my experience I have had the best 4 years in Santa Paula High. The teachers and staff and everyone are so amazing, they are always trying to improve their methods. I love the campus because it feels warm and nice. Although It would also be really nice if they had better food, and that is the only thing I would rate lower than anything on campus.

Senior: What I like about this district is that when students ask for an activity. They try there best to accomplish it. For example, this year I joined ballet flokoriko . From my experience I seen that they have gone to the money wise more accomplished. For the following reason that they have gave enough money for each girl to have a skirt. Also how the Spanish teacher takes her life after school to teach us. Also they are providing for everything we need even though they have other clubs to support or other sport.Also I like that they communicate with the students parents of any changes their is. The most important is that they always support what the students think whats a good idea. I had the opportunity to play at an event and the people their was so friendly. They had lots of respect.Overall, I think this district has good thing but I also think they have more things to work on towards the schools.

The school has over 18 buildings, one being a two-story, that allows a student to take any course they're interested in; this can also apply to its overwhelming amount of clubs and even college classes in order for the student to start their path to higher education early on.
