I attended Dripping Springs High School for all four years of high school. I will be graduating here in a week and have a few things I would want to pass on about this school! I loved most of my teachers, they were super helpful and genuinely cared for the students. The staff was always amazing. The opportunities that this high school brought me were amazing, I am graduating with not only my real estate license but also my tsfa level 1 certification. This school has prepared me well for college too! They offer so many dual credit classes that i will be going to college with 30 hours completed!
Dripping Springs has an elevated culture. The football games, pep rallies, poetry nights, and other student events contribute to the fun atmosphere. The school is bursting with clubs and leadership opportunities to participate in. People care about the student experience, and this is extremely evident in the hallway decorations. There are quotes about kindness and motivation lining the halls, seasonal decorations such as Christmas trees or Halloween posters, student-created murals honoring veterans, and an explosion of football hype-up matter leading up to games. While the workload can be depressing if you make it so, the students and faculty work to make it a great environment to grow up in.
