Positives: I love that Amador is an incredible school for academics and fosters a hardworking environment. It also offers a lot of esteemed classes and even niche AP's to help students with college applications. Negatives: I feel the school could definitely use more school spirit, improved facilities, and more non-stem related classes especially for arts students.

Amador Valley is a really good academic high school if you are willing to put in the work. Some teachers are great and some really don't care about students and care more about their jobs. As for sports the school is mediocre and the administration focused more on academics and band. There is a good amount of diversity here but the majority of students are Asian American.
