Senior: My high school experience was the best. Being in band is really awesome because you get to go to all the football games and band competitions. You learn to become a part of a group but not just a group, they become family. The classes were tough but the teachers were always there to help you whenever you needed them. Overall, I’m going to miss this school when I graduate.... Read 189 reviews

Senior: Out of all the high schools in the Corpus Christi Independent school district, this one is the best! All of the staff are very welcoming and have a lot of pride in the work they are doing and show a strong passion for the students. Veterans Memorial also has many great programs to get involved with including the award winning band and choir and the many outstanding sports programs who often see great success. Veterans also offers opportunities such as welding and firefighting for those who are looking for a job immediately after high school.... Read 86 reviews

Senior: I have attended Carroll the past 4 years of high school and have enjoyed every moment. School spirit radiates off the student body, our organizations have passionate and well rounded sponsors as well as students. I have always felt comfortable within my surroundings and that my teachers were dedicated to enriching students knowledge and motivation to learn. I have built some of my closet relationships as well as developed new perspectives on life goals. I truly value my education and personal connections with those at Carroll high school....

Senior: There is a lot of opportunity for community involvement and improvement, which I am a big fan. I am a goal oriented person. I am passionate about volunteering in my local community to improve local marine environment and improve local people’s lives. I have already started reaching my goals by having a 4.0 GPA and a 1310 on my SAT. I hope this will kick start my college career to study either environmental engineering, computer science, or marine sciences. I currently support my Corpus Christi community by: 1. National Honor Society- Where we volunteer time and finances to improve not just our own high school, but many other schools in and around Corpus Christi. 2. Science National Honor Society- I am the Vice President, and we volunteer at environmental quality organizations and marine animal organizations such as the Texas Sealife Center. 3. Interact Club- Where we set up and volunteer to fund scholarships and read books aloud to Early Childhood Centers in the area. Thank... Read 399 reviews

Senior: Moody high school is a school to whoever. We are accepting to all. What I like most about this school was the academic classes. We are the only school in our district who have programs such as the Health & Science academy (which I am in), engineering, culinary arts, welding, and more. With the academy I’m in, we have a chance to earn certifications that allow us to work in the medical field right out of high school. I have earn my EKG certificate, phlebotomy, and CPR just in my junior year of high school. Next year, I will be a senior and will be taking the EMT course. These certificates are important to me because they help me realize all the dedication and time I spent to learn more and more every day about the medical field, and that is what Moody is all about. To help you achieve your goals and to be your best you can.... Read 238 reviews

Senior: Overall, I feel like I can say that I enjoyed my time at Miller. There were some ups and downs, but it has been a fun time. I believe the band's overall personality is amazing and fun. My time on the golf team has been nothing short of fun. I enjoyed every second of practice, and I will miss it. As I previously stated, overall, I believe that while it certainly isn't the best school, it is definitely not the worst. It's been a fun 6 years (7th-12th).... Read 62 reviews

I was very success at this school and most of the credit has to go to the environment I received my education in. Playing Lady Marlin basketball in the "Tank" was an unforgettable experience.

Senior: I moved to Tuloso-Midway in 8th grade. I remember the day I moved to TM like it was yesterday. Transferring to TM as a new student was scary, but the teachers, staff, coaches, and other students made me feel like I was at home. TM understood how scared I was about transferring to a new school and did everything they could to make me feel comfortable and heard. TM took all of my opinions and suggestions and created things with them. I admire how open TM is to all of my new ideas and how welcoming they are to new students. I am now going into my senior year or 5th year at TM, and I’d like to say I have made the right decision choosing to transfer to this particular school.... Read 301 reviews

Senior: My experience at W.B. Ray High School has been incredible. I transferred to Ray for my senior year of High School and I sincerely wish that I could've attended all four years. We have an International Baccalaureate program which is extraordinary and a variety of On Ramps classes with the University of Texas at Austin. The culture is so diverse at Ray, the counselors and the registrar office workers are so patient and friendly. The students are so welcoming and our student body has so much spirit! I'm so proud to be a fighting Texan! One thing I would like to see changed is having the theatre department renovated. The theatre hall is a bit outdated and could just use a bit of TLC! Other than that, I have no complaints!... Read 178 reviews

There's teams, programs, and clubs for everyone, should you want to get involved in any way. The school could be improved by starting college preparedness as soon as freshman year rather than a few months before senior year ends.... Read 278 reviews

This school provides many educational options for the students at RECHS and many students have been involved with the academics that they provide. Even I had taken advantage of the different options that have here, and every other student should as well. I wouldn’t change anything about this school, everything that they do now makes a huge difference.... Read 107 reviews

Senior: I have been attending Banquete since Kindergarten and my experience has been nothing less than excellent! Banquete is a small community, so class sizes are fairly small and you get that one-on-one time with your teachers. The teachers are all so great at their jobs as well. Tutoring is always available and they will work out an alternative schedule with you if you can't make after-school tutoring (ex. before school starts in the morning, during breakfast, during lunch, etc.). This school is like a family; everyone wants everyone to succeed. There are also many clubs and opportunities for success in an area you are passionate about. For instance, some organizations include Speech and Debate, TAFE, FFA, Band, Athletics, and etc. The faculty go to the ends of the earth to ensure that everyone is safe while on campus. Every door is always locked, there are frequent safety drills, the windows have a tint that makes it difficult for outsiders to see inside, and etc. Amazing school.... Read 77 reviews

Alum: The teachers were very personable and made sure students were getting a good education. It was a family community feel and made for making great relationships. The school was not incredibly diverse and I’d love to see this change. I know over the last few years this has improved and it makes me very happy to see London High School embracing diversity in their community! The school district was very small, but I believe they are now expanding and adding more staff and buildings! This is very exciting as I know many people wanted their children to come here. London gave me a good high school experience and I’m very glad that I was so cared for as a student!... Read 23 reviews

Senior: I recently moved from a public school to the Private school of Incarnate Word - Corpus Christi. It has been the best experience. I have grown in my academic knowledge by being required and motivated to go above and beyond to achieve in my academic learning. The staff at Incarnate Word have been supportive and welcoming towards me which has made the transition easier than I expected. The rigor of the academics has opened my eyes to the expectations of what college life might be like. With the expectations and rigor at the standard excellence. I feel more prepared and am ready for the challenge of my college education.... Read 85 reviews

Senior: This school is great & the teachers are very helpful in my opinion! This is my first year here & my last since I am a senior. This year has been excellent so far & I get all A's! It's only 4 hours & you can choose whether to go in the morning or afternoon so I think that helps a lot depending on your schedule. I go in the mornings so I get out of school at 12 p.m. & then I have the rest of the day free to do whatever I need to do. This school is also fast pace I would say as well & you can take some of your classes at your own pace as well so if you are trying to recover some credits or you need more credits etc. Then I think this would be a great school for you & I would definitely recommend this school if you're just trying to look for a new school! But it may not be for everyone, so just look into it first!... Read 7 reviews
