This school is entirely what you make of it. Most graduates go on to higher education though usually around half of them go to the local community college. The top students sometimes go on to great universities like UCLA and MIT, so in no way does this school hold you back. It just doesn't really push you forward either. CUHS biggest benefit though is how easy it is to join sports and clubs here. All sports do not require tryouts to make the team, though most beginners will start on JV. It's biggest drawback is that since the school is so small, one bad teacher can really hold down a department.
