I had a difficult and uncomfortable experience with their registrar clerk. Verbally aggressive, belittling, and hostile. I have never talked to anyone the way she talked to me. It's a shame parents and families have to interact with this person. When asking about a students classes she said verbatim "it does not matter what classes she took she failed anyway...". I hope this is not reflective of how the rest of the school approaches education. Send your child anywhere but here.

The administration allows for the indoctrination of your children to anti-American Marxism.

Overall great, but there also that there why the school lack of. Good news is the school really support colleges. Teachers are great. Sports had been turn around like football. Most of all bad news what natomas lack of is that natomas lack is that there are less student freedom because of many restrictions to the rule that is meaningless and unneeded. Like no baked food to school that idk why it is restricted. School lunch is pretty crowded and like student need space and there are more student hang out in class instead of outside. I hate the way they just keep playing the song everyday in lunch time and the school realky lack of good food. They are very lack. School barely have the summer school use to advance people to get ahead and wanting to reached their goal to go to college faster. School money barely support the sports which the sports had really turned around in the 2014-15. As the student athlete playing the football season eight now is been the game changer in the 2014 we won our 1st win over 4years, won homecoming over 7 years, and won our senior year over 8 years. Finally going to playoff over 5 years. Natomas has been #1 loosing streak in California. The new Natomas!!

As a student going into her third year at this school, I have the right to say this school sucks. I will not suggest sending your child here even if you think it is the only option. The school has no respect for the students followed by no care. The school only cares about the football team which has not won a single game in 4 years. They cut out most of the classes that are mandatory for college and the staff does not care at all. The staff at Natomas only care about what you're wearing, not about if you are in class or not. I was stopped on my way to class for wearing shorts... I say, this school needs to focus on the education system than the sports and clothing. They need to focus on making the male teachers and students more mature than worry about normal female parts. Females have legs, males have legs, females are not allowed to wear shorts, males are allowed to wear shorts. Sexiest much? Not only that, it is racist. Parents are probably reading this and thinking "oh, she's a teenager. What does she know?" I happen to be a white female student at this school whom is treated by her race and gender. If you want your kid to go to a poorly educated, racist, sexiest school, fine.

As a student at Natomas, i can honestly say that this school is not where you want your kids to attend. Being part of the class of 2013, there are many of us who take advanced placed classes, and at the end of the day, we are the ones who raised the test scores. This school doesn't aim to help and provide opportunities for those of us who choose to excel. It seems as if sports takes the 1st place for attention [even if they are not even good], and all this school does is come up with rules to oppress the students. For example, students are confined in the lunch area at lunch, which feels over crowded, loud and noisy. Balloons aren't allowed in schools, cupcakes, etc. The administrators try to enforce rules, but they are not consistent at all. When girls walk around with cleavages , nothing happens , but when a class tries to promote school spirit, they decide to jump on their throats. The class of 2013 got in trouble for wearing togas without the administrator's permission, and it was not causing disruption in classes, but they still had to take it off.This was just a way for the school to exercise their powers, but it makes no sense & isn't fair because there isn't any consistency

This school as a whole is B in my opinion. I have gone here for one and a half years, and the manner in which they deal with problems throughout the school is excellent. The teachers whom i have encountered have given ample opportunity for students with self induced emotional or mental stigmatisms to "catch up". However, students who wished to get ahead of the curriculum had not been helped. Some areas of the academic programs had not been a challenge where, due to my own circumstances, others were a serious task. I believe that this school can be improved with more experienced teachers yet is still a school that i would send my child, were i to have any. :) -Glenn Robinson

I think this is a great School if you, as a parent are involved. The administration is excellent and the principle is outstanding. Many of the teachers will give extra attention to the students who are interested in getting better grades. If you expect the school to do all the work do us a favor don't send your kids here.

Look i just graduated 2009, and i wish i picked a better school to go to. The only thing good about this school is the soccar team and mr. Eick. Some of the teachers seem to pick and choose what kids will succeed, then focus all attention to those certain students. I hated that school but mr. Eick is the only reason i stayed, he made sure i stayed on track with my work. I love mr. Eick and without him natomas high would have been a waste of time.
