(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Seems like an A based on what I've seen going on a couple of tours but we haven't enrolled yet.

- I think Pasadena High School is an awesome school. I love being there. I've only been there for 2 months, but I love it. My friends are awesome, I love my teachers, my classes are fun, everything is great. I can't imagine going anywhere else. I'm so glad I don't go to Arcadia High School like my mother wants.
Unlike my old school, I haven't felt out of place or like I didn't fit in/belong there.
I'd definitely recommend this school to anyone.
