My experience at Venice High has exceeded my expectations.  My daughter is in the STEM Magnet and a Cheerleader and is a straight A student.   I believe that her grades this year are in part due to the help the Principal gave to make sure she was in the classes that best worked for her.  Since Dr. Wiedoeft arrived, everything has gone up, attendance, graduation, testing scores, safety, and more.  I am glad that we chose Venice.

This school has gangs, and not very good quality teachers. I recommend to not send ur child here, because it will make a bad influence on ur child.

Overall, I really liked Venice High.  I feel that my nephew could have done better if he had involved himself in more clubs.  As an African-American male he got lost in the mix.  I wish he would have joined BSU, but he chose not to.   He has done well considering all things.  He is now on his way to California Baptist University, in Riverside to live on campus.  I thank Venice for providing numerous choices for him, even though he didn't choose them all. Thank you, Venice!

I didn’t attend this school. But it’s upsetting to know that none of the reviews talk about a great American film that was filmed at this location “Grease” was the name of the film. It just goes to show where are future is going. Just saying 🖕🏿

I attended Venice high school from 2009-2011. I was part of the magnet program and was supposed to be class of 2013.

Venice high does a good job of maintaining its "image"-- it's the posterchild for "good schools"-- they have an open, ungated campus, nice statues and fancy placards, big fields, athletic appeal for student athletes hoping to get drafted, and boasts a language program.

Let me tell you that this is all a front. All schools have social problems and bullying problems, so I won't bother addressing those issues. But I will say is that it is a VERY unsafe school... Your children will probably be safer at Crenshaw high school... Seriously. 

1) During my years here I saw many student consume and sell drugs right on campus, right in front of classrooms. And I'm not talking about weed-- I mean actual narcotics like opioids and cocaine. Teachers are oblivious.

 2) There is an ongoing problem of hazing and sexual assault on this campus. Look it up. In 2015, 10 people on the football team were arrested for SEXUAL ASSAULT. 

3) Venice high school does a bad job at addressing issues. If you're a "problem kid" or perform poorly in classes, they don't offer you HELP. Their solution is to get RID of you.

Most** of the teachers are rude and uncaring. I had a lot of emotional problems and home problems as a teen. I missed a lot of school and consistently failed classes. No one bat an eye or bothered to ask me what I was going through. The teachers were unsympathetic and seemed to not care. I dropped out of school for about a year and decided to go back. A counselor discouraged me from coming back and told me to settle for a GED. Luckily, I went elsewhere and graduated on time.

But just be wary, this school is more concerned with it's athletes and maintaining their reputation so they can continue being funded. Avoid this school at all costs.
