Chinquapin Preparatory School
#3 Best Boarding High Schools in Harris County
Senior: The general atmosphere is one of safety and community, and many students feel that they can truly be themselves. The administration is always actively trying to maintain this atmosphere of safety, inclusivity, and community. The teachers are always open and receptive to criticism and the grievances of the student body, whether it is concerning the classroom or issues in the community. Most of the issues we have come from our limited funding and resources, since we rely upon the generosity of donors, but we do an excellent job of making do with what we have. Teachers are often stretched to their very maximum: they must be multifaceted and take on a diverse range of roles outside of teaching. They are dedicated to the school, although it can be extremely stressful and overwhelming. It absolutely takes a very special and unique type of teacher to work here, but usually they are well-intentioned, they enjoy the students and teaching, and genuinely want to be here.
