Environmental Charter High School

I am a parent and have 2 daughters at this school. It truly is a wonderful school and full of fun opportunities to learn and grow. Lots of programs that are very beneficial to the future of my children.

these kids and teens that walk home with their backpacks, they go straight to the liquor store and subway food place at the corner by the new park and buy junk food of snacks and litter in front of my residential properties and i have to pick up after them. which is VERY UNACCEPTABLE. i really do not appreciate that at all.
and on top of that, they walk by yelling and shouting to each other when this is supposed to be a residential neighborhood area where people who live here as my unit tenants and the rest of the neighborhood block who work on a daily basis want peace and quiet. not a circus and/​or zoo for such loudness. SMH.
your school kids and teens must be taught that it is not nice/​good manners/​behaviors to litter especially at other people’s properties.
please teach them better because you are a school that needs to teach them better. and let their parents know too. schools and parents/​guardians are supposed to help shape your kids and teens into better and respectful kids especially respectful of other people’s properties.

Graduated class of 2008 & I’ve had some of the best memories/​experiences at this school.
I have watched this charter school grow since it’s old location on Larch and 147^th Street, right behind Leuzinger.
What’s great about this school is the number of students per class. It’s small enough to get an amazing sense of community, to build relationships with students and teachers, and it’s focus is on college prep and the environment!
Every year there is an opportunity to attend a field trip that last a couple of days.
Freshman go to Catalina Islands and get to snorkel, kayak, hike, sleep in cabins, and learn about plant and & animal life.
Sophomores go to Joshua Tree where you can rock climb, explore caves, and maybe even see first snow. It’s really cold! Make sure you bring warm clothes!
Juniors go to the San Jacinto mountains and hike the Pacific Crest Trail. This trip involves carrying a 60lb bag, preparing your own meal, hiking, fetching your own water, an all-​around outdoor experience. Very beautiful and rewarding experience!
At the school, teachers care about the well-​being of their students and success. They push their students to apply to 4-​year universities (and I believe is a graduation requirement).
Students from this school have been accepted all over: USC, UCLA, CSULB, CSULA, UCSD, UCSC, UCSB, etc!
Inquire within ASAP! They are more than happy to open their doors to any student, even if they’re not within the district! Your child might moan and complain but if they choose to get the most out of the school, the rewards and possibilities are endless. They will be at a greater advantage and be well-​rounded individuals!
