I am a parent of three current Foothill high school students. My family and I are "Hispanic" and although we make up less that 5% of the population of the city and the school, we have been welcomed by our neighbors, the community and so have my children at their school. I would recomend this school to anyone without any reservations. The teachers, counselors, staff, students and other parents have been more than helpful and welcoming. We did our homework before moving here. Foothill's academic and sport programs did not disapoint.

I am a parent, Music program is great, but that is really the only positive thing about this school, foothill lacks diversity, it lacks respect to other cultures, most teachers are disrespectful, my son really doesn't like this school at all being that he is Hispanic, and he gets disrespect from other students. I would not recommend this school to anyone!

Foothill High is a Great School. Our second Grandson to attend this school is now enrolled and we are excited about his future.

At Foothill, the teachers and counselors really care about the well being of the students. The campus is gorgeous and spacious. The quality of the education there has made Foothill the best school in Northern California, no contest. Foothill has the highest API scores north of Sacramento and an academically excellent program education has to offer. In addition, the sports and arts are highly praised and offer every student opportunites to be involed, especially the music department which is the best performing arts class on campus, no contest again. If I were a parent, I would definitely send my children to Foothill because it offers more than just an education; it offers success for life, guaranteed.

My grandson went from hating school, to loving it after just a week into his freshman year. He will be a senior next semester, and still loves it. My Granddaughter has gone on to Chico after finding her direction in life at Foothills FFA. She works for a bank, is a good student, and is everything you want for your grandkids. Love the events and open communication with staff. I wish it was here when my son was in high school.

foothill is the best school ever! The teachers actually care about the students and really get to know them. Admin go the distance to make the school as fun and safe as possible. Foothill is the school to go to if you want the full high school experience; football games are amazing, basketball games are always fun and so on!! I was a student at foothill and now i am in college to be a high school english teacher and hopefully I can come back and teach at FHS! GO COUGARS!!!
