Probably the best independent high school in the state of California.

A wonderful school that lives and breathes diversity and acceptance. Great teachers, staff and community.

Oct 16, 2017
I moved to Los Angeles 3 years ago (halfway through my junior year) no local high schools or private schools would take me but, miraculously, Vistamar could. Having moved all the way from England it really was quite the miracle that this school that knew nothing about me and next to nothing about my educational history could take me in and get me enrolled and in classes before I had even got over my jetlag. I was handed a schedule and was "on my way" less than 48 hours after getting off my one way flight. Fast forward to about a month before graduation. I was sat in a room with my parents and the deputy head being informed of all the different classes (multiple semesters of credit) I am in need of in order to walk graduation in just a few weeks. It was a total sucker punch to the side of the head for me and my parents. Why were we only being informed of this now? Looking back, this is down to their money first, education second attitude. I still sit here writing this review without a high school diploma to my name (about to complete it in a few months at adult school). They completely took advantage of us as a family that had just relocated and knew not a whole lot about the education system and tied us down before we could really understand that there was no chance of graduation with my class. As for the school itself, if you like warehouses and/or buildings with less windows than you could count on one hand. This is the place for you. This is nothing more than a refrigerator box with more artificial lighting than a Kardashian photo shoot. The students are unbelievably cliquey. Be prepared to be judged and looked down on by people. Be prepared to be put down for your different, more conservative, political views. If I could go back I would go and start my High School career as a freshman at a REAL High School and get a REAL High School experience because the Disney-esque experience you receive at Vistamar will not prepare you for the Real World that exists outside the Warehouse walls of 737 Hawaii Street.

Every student deserves this good of an education. Likewise, every teacher deserves this supportive and encouraging of a work environment. Go Vikings!
