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.

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: The school is amazing filled with great sponsors, teachers, and students! They prepare you for the next step to college. Academy HS is where anyone is accepted there. The classes are great and many UIL activities you can participate in. We are a small school but what matters the most is the people in the school. As a matter of fact its amazing you can even enjoy your mini fast food restaurants just right across the street! There's Chick-fil-A, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, Subway, pool station, video game station, and a mini market down the building. As I walk in the building the students, sponsors, and the teachers just make you super comfortable to talk to. It's just a great high school. What i do wish the school to have is better food, more buses, a bigger building, and bigger classes because Santa Gertrudis Academy HS is filled with many students who want to learn and ready to make that large step to their lives....

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: Rockport-Fulton High School (RFHS), is a great high school with great athletics in all sports. Though we don't have lacrosse or field hockey we have a variety of other amazing sports in which the athletes flourish! The RFHS football team has gone to playoffs the past 2 years and the RFHS Boys Basketball team are District Champs and went to playoffs this past year! A LOT of the athletes here sign with D1, D2 and D3 colleges to continue their athletic careers. We are pushed in and out of the classroom. The teachers are great, respectful and very helpful. Our Admin. is great but our board-meetings aren't at the most logical hours if students and parents want to attend. Our school spirit is up there, not everyone participates but most of us do! Our cops/ security are kind but they make sure everyone is as safe as possible. We take pride in our school and community! Go Pirates!... Read 157 reviews

Alum: Over the four years I frequented this school, I greatly enjoyed the educational environment and experience. The programs Gregory-Portland High School offers are geared towards helping students progress to an eventual full-time job position in multiple fields. Specifically their endorsement program provided students with many career and study options by offering different paths of classes students could take during their four year stay. The music programs are top-notch. Because of excellent staff, many students made their way to high-level music competitions. The experience here is unique, and you can tell the employees genuinely want your success!... Read 236 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.

My time on the golf team has been nothing short of fun. I enjoyed every second of practice, and I will miss it.

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: What I enjoyed most about Alice High School, is their Early College High School program (ECHS). This program gives students an opportunity to get a head start on completing dual credit classes, and getting most of the basics out of the way. The best part about it is that not only does the high school pay for all of your classes, they pay for your books as well. This program also takes it's students to visit local colleges such as the University of Austin TX, Texas A&M University Corpus Christi, and Del Mar college, providing the students with transportation and a meal....

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

Junior: Sinton High School is located in a small town, that has a population of about 6,000 people. Sinton High School is a very great school. The teachers are amazing along with the great faculty and administrators. There are many extracurricular activities that students have a chance to participate in too, from sports to debate club to band to choir. One of the greatest things about Sinton High School is how everyone comes together in times of need, and how everyone helps one another. Sinton High School is overall a great school that stands tall and proud. There may be some down sides to certain people, for example Sinton High School has a no phone policy. You can only use your cellphone at lunch and no other time of the day. There's not much change that I would like to see at Sinton High School. Its amazing the way it is and I wouldn't want to change that. Sinton High School is strong and proud of what it has become over the years. I am proud to say that I am a Sinton Pirate!...

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
