Even though I did not live in the district, I went to school in Fairfield CA. I had a negative opinion about my high school the day my mother was taking me to sign up because I had heard rumors that the school was predominantly Caucasian. From the day I stepped into the office until I graduated, the time there will always be one of the best long term experiences I ever had.
I was scared to do sports but that school shook the fear out of me. I was having to always watch out for myself but that school helped me feel comfortable with letting my guard down. Vanden high school is an all-around great school. We were known as Travis Air Force base kids from the Solano County. At first I thought it was a military school but soon found out that the kids and young adults there were actually very fun and it was not a military school in the least. The schools academics were great, kids are social, success is often encouraged and pushed upon students from the teachers, and it has a high graduation rate and students are prepared for their college courses after high school.
