Cabrillo High School has given me a really good high school experience. It's a school well connected with its students and ensures fun along with learning.
6/4/2024
My best parts of my Cabrillo High school experience was the clubs and the friends I've made, the drama club showed me a version of me I'm glad I found, and my friends made me a much better person, not just for myself, but also my community.
10/31/2022
My experience at Cabrillo High School has been good and memorable. In the engineering pathway, I have met amazing teachers who have guided me and to whom I was able to truly confide in. Not only that, I have met a few lifelong friends and made memories at multiple events.

My son is doing exceptionally well at this school. He loves the small learning community he is a part of and really enjoys being a part of the NJROTC program which is top notch.
