It feels like many faculty and staff are more concerned about collecting a paycheck than actually supporting students. Despite having their own dedicated police presence on campus, the administration seems unable or unwilling to maintain basic safety and order. Fights and incidents of bullying happen almost daily, and students openly use THC vape pens throughout the campus without consequence. This lack of enforcement and care creates a toxic environment where students don't feel safe or supported.

The information along with the reviews are VERY OUTDATED. South San can be compared to any school in the city & even out with it. South San is NOT what it was 15 - 20 years ago. We have a Brand new school with state of the art equipment for use & great staff on board. We offer many paths for programs for college for students to enroll. All South San does is stress the importance of moving on into your next career field & helping you on the way. Do not always believe what Fox news puts on tv trying to represent us as still a "Ghetto school" because we are not. We have little to none Gang Violence & school fights because everybody just keeps to their group. The only real problem I can say is the National Honor Society is NOT taken seriously, but rather as a joke because anybody can get in & will probably graduate as one even if you had failing grades in the past year. South San is a great school that stresses college on the first day to freshmen & along with all students having the chance to choose their career. Now with the reviews in the past stating "Too much stress on students & not much help on teachers" is BS because us teenagers just like to wait last second to do things.
