GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Los Amigos High School is a great school with many activities one can participate in. I am currently a senior and so far, the teachers and counselors have been doing a great job noticing our achievements and making us feel proud of ourselves.

I liked my time at Los Amigos High School. Of course, some of the kids attending are troublemakers and get into a lot of trouble, but if you associate yourself with the right people you will be fine as a normal high schooler.

At my year, I saw most students did not receive the attention that they should have. So many students with talent that were left aside. But after the School President left, and a new one comes in, I heard that school has improve and more students get into top college and university. I wish it could happen just a little earlier.

Worst school to allow your children to attend. Teachers are the worst, students are in gangs and bring weapons to school. Good luck driving your car on the property, gangs will rob you.
