Sierra Vista High School
sierra vista is a school that needs a lot of academic progress. also its a school that needs to provide their students more classes with the proper and appropriate materials. lets face it, its sad to see SV students come to baldwin park high school to take their AP chemistry course. Its our pleasure to see them come because that shows their sacrifice and their hunger to learn but also you can see in their eyes that they get tired coming everyday and leaving in an hr. seeing such behavior, SV still needs a lot of improvement. i would NEVER allow my child/sister/brother/ neice/ cousin attend Sierra Vista High School.
