Cons: Building is old and outdated. Only 10-12 grade in attendance because school is too small for current student population. District is addressing over population in next bond package, but this has been a problem for years. 9th graders go to a separate school. 9th grade center is also old (like fall out shelter old) and outdated. District is in process of building a new middle school; current middle school will be converted into 9th grade center /eventually become the 2nd high school in the district.
Pros - District is in process of updating athletic facilities. this update is probably so that old high school will have parity with new high school that is to be built. Very focused on college prep coursework. Both AP coursework and dual credit coursework is offered. Academics are good. Good choice of athletics, clubs and activities to join and belong to. School is safe and the district has resources. Students have been doing coursework on iPads for several years.

Transfering in is difficult as they stack their students with pre-AP classes. Their AP classes are open to everyone and teach for a 3! They want as many students as possible to pass the class and maybe get Texas college credit. This school certainly serves the average student and the school district is stuck in 'no child left behind' mantra.
Average school. Several teachers OUTSTANDING and continue to make an impact with students. SO grateful for them! Sports main focus on football (losing team) when other sports could use assistance such as field overhaul for girls softball along with new scoreboard and sound system for both softball and baseball. Tennis court could also use repair.
