School Overview

Modesto High is one of the older, more storied campuses in the Central Valley, carrying a lot of community pride and history in a city that's working hard to reinvent itself. Families who are deeply rooted in Modesto and value local tradition will feel at home here, though it's worth knowing that academic outcomes tend to fall below state averages, so supplementing with outside resources can make a real difference. The surrounding neighborhoods are working-class and unpretentious, and for families who are engaged and proactive, Modesto High can still be a meaningful high school experience with the right support system in place.
