It has been a journey at Salinas High School, ranging from their encouragement to join more clubs to all the social and leadership positions you can be exposed to. A change I would like to see is free tutors but that actually are quick and in person.

I've attended Salinas High for the last three years. This school has always been very friendly and laid-back. Most students are quite friendly, and because of this, I've met some of my closest friends. If I could change anything, I would like to see parents and the district give students less leeway and hold them more accountable for their actions. This is because of events that occurred in the district two years ago.

I like that there are many kids from different races. Everyday is like a new day at school you really do not know what is going to happen. There are amazing programs here at Salinas High. As well as programs there are many sports teams that represent the school. Throughout my time here at Salinas High I had a good time. They have wonder clubs and I got to form part of one for 2 years. The kindness club is one of the clubs you would want to join because it very welcoming. The club write positive message on the sidewalk as we as gives valentine day cards to every locker here at school. We also write positive messages on cards and put them everyone locker so they feel welcomed here at school. Apart from great clubs there are also teachers that really help you out. I have had some great teachers that help student out. I think Salinas high is a really great school. I think all student would feel accepted here.

My daughter attends Salinas High. Most of the teachers are great educators.

The student population is not as diverse as I would like, but there is a decent mix of students...

I loved Salinas High, most of the teachers I had were amazing, (Balbo, Beall, Power, Nichols) I would highly recommend this school which rivals any local private school. The amount of Sports, Clubs and School Spirit is unparalleled compared to any other high school in the area.

Overall I loved high school and being apart of all the activities; from going to games, prom, and being apart of homecoming, etc. I feel like your experience at SHS can be wonderful if you make it, meaning getting involved (clubs!) or even just going to a football game and supporting the school! I r...
