      Academics


      Enterprise High School is a state-recognized distinguished school in California. The foreign languages offered are French, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese. There is also a drama department, which lets students perform in plays and musicals. Enterprise currently offers Honors and Advanced Placement Courses in: English I, English II, English III, English IV, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Psychology, European History, U.S. History, American Government/Economics, Statistics, Trigonometry, Calculus, and Spanish.
      Due to the low socio-economic status of Enterprise, test scores are reflective of that status. Contrary to popular belief, however, Enterprise ranks a 10 out of 10 when compared to schools of similar size. Other schools in the district rank much lower when compared to schools of equivalent size and socio-economic status.
      Enterprise also has an extensive and broad College Preparatory program. Every subject is offered in CP level, acceptable to the University of California and California State University systems.
      Enterprise has an extensive list of available electives, in which they satisfy unit credit for the UC and CSU systems.

However, Enterprise won the River Bowl back on October 13, 2006 with a score of 10-0, the first shut out in River Bowl history. On October 12, 2007, a great and close game was played with the conclusion of Shasta winning the River Bowl back with a score of 17-24.

      Bodine v. Enterprise High School


      Around 1 A.M. on March 1, 1982, 18-year-old Rick Earl Bodine and three others trespassed on the roof of Enterprise High School, allegedly to steal floodlights from the roof. After handing down one of the lights, Bodine reportedly walked across to take a second light, but in the dark and rain, he fell through a painted-over skylight; the trespassers called an ambulance. Brain damage from the 27-foot fall initially left Bodine mute and quadriplegic.
      The state declined to prosecute Bodine, viewing that the injuries were more than sufficient punishment. Bodine's attorney, Al Naphan, sued the school district, arguing the district was negligent; a similar incident had occurred at the district's Shasta High School on June 6, 1981, killing Paul Andrew Schurr. Judge Joseph Redmon ruled that criminal conduct would not bar Bodine from suing or collecting. The district's insurance company settled the case for $260,000 up front plus $1,500 per month for the rest of Bodine's life.
      The Bodine case was referenced by California assemblyman Alister McAlister during his campaign for AB200; while a similar bill (AB2800) had been rejected in the previous session, AB200 was signed into law on October 2, 1985. Statute 847 of the California Civil Code currently states:

      (a) An owner, including, but not limited to, a public entity, as defined in Section 811.2 of the Government Code, of any estate or any other interest in real property, whether possessory or nonpossessory, shall not be liable to any person for any injury or death that occurs upon that property during the course of or after the commission of any of the felonies set forth in subdivision (b) by the injured or deceased person.
      A 1986 ad in support of Proposition 51, also featuring McAlister, started with the line "Attempting to steal from a school, a burglar falls through a gymnasium skylight and sues the school for his injuries."
      A fictional case similar to Bodine is mentioned in the 1997 film Liar Liar; in 2012, former Arizona Senate president Russell Pearce cited the fictional lawsuit while campaigning for the Crime Victims Protection Act Amendment.
