This school has a bad reputation. When we go on field trips or when our teachers tell them what school they teach at they are looked down on. It really isn't that bad, this school is fun and there are lots of kind students. There are only a few kids that are bad like how people say (mostly boys). This school is fun and the best elective is choir. I'm currently in choir and it's really fun I will most likely join choir in high school. Our choir teacher is AMAZING! Choir makes you feel so welcome! I became friends with all 35 kids in my class!! But to sum it up! Sycamore isn't such a bad school, ps. Join choir! :D

This school isn't all as bad as most people say sure there are rude kids, but not all of them are like them. Most of the kids there greeted me with respect.

Sycamore Junior High School has potential to be the top Junior High School in Anaheim. Mr. Carmona, the school principal inspires Teachers, students, and parent involvement with his tremendous support. Truly shows how committed everyone is to bringing the best possible education to all the students. There are many programs to assist the students and their parents. PTSA is committed to bring up parent involvement to empower parents and their families. Safety is the number one priority of the school. We are blessed to have an amazing staff at Sycamore JHS who my daughter enjoys! She had perfect attendance last year and has earned many awards and acknowledgement from her dedicated teachers. Sycamore Junior Honor Society has taught my daughter many skills such as leadership, time management and to do community service in Peer Court and more. The school counselors are amazing! They strive to go the extra mile. Thank you Sycamore JHS, you are paving the path to success for every student who have the potential to be very bright ready for High School and beyond!

Sycamore Junior High School is amazing!! My son has always attended a private school, this is his first year at Sycamore and the teachers are very attentive. His counselor is prompt in regards to responding to emails and making appointments. The teachers are readily available to help for extra tutoring!! Great Job
