Arroyo High School
Arroyo has about 2,000 kids and most classes have about 30-35 kids. The teachers are really cool, you can talk to them whenever you need help woth school or just want to chat. The sports and arts programs are losing funding, as well as the rest of the schoool, but there are still many classes to choose from.
