TMI Episcopal

• Private School
• San Antonio, TX
• 6-12
• 36

Alum: TMI is an incredible private school that values not only quality education, but also community service, student leadership, and good sportsmanship. I'd say all the students grow to be well-rounded individuals with every advantage at succeeding in life. Unlike Keystone that focuses, in my opinion, too much on academics, TMI focuses on the overall happiness and well-being of its students, while providing an engaging enviornment for student life and college-preparatory education. The campus is absolutely beautiful, and because the school is relatively small, students are trusted to act like adults and given freedoms and opportunities you won't find at other schools. Walking around this school is like being on a small private college campus. In addition, teachers are supportive of students in every way imaginable. Unlike other students at my university, I was prepared for college and able to maintain a 4.0 without trying very much.

Health Careers High School

• Northside Independent School District (San Antonio), TX
• 9-12
• 482

Junior: Going to Health Careers is probably my best educational decision I've made in my life thus far. I've made so many connections with my teachers and peers, and fitting in isn't really a problem as it is so diverse. Academically speaking, HC has prepared me for college way more than any other normal high school would have been able to. Everyone is so helpful and we all understand each other as we all go through the same struggles with school. There are no team sports so we do miss out on "normal" high school experiences like homecoming and football games, however, in the sports we do have we are the absolute best! Personally, I am on the bowling team and our Varsity Girls are the most dedicated and talented in our city having traveled to Nationals for the past 3 years. I definitely recommend sending students there if education is first and foremost for them and their families.

Basis San Antonio

• BASIS San Antonio Medical Center, TX
• 5-10
• 4

Freshman: Basis is an extremely rigorous school that prepares you for college. It offers a variety of classes and the courses are difficult. A change I would like to see made is the cost of joining extracurriculars to be lowered. The school is a charter school but ,due to the difficult courses that one would have to engage in, most students often drop out of the school resulting in smaller classes and better one on one relations with the teachers.

International School of the Americas

• North East Independent School District, TX
• 9-12
• 249

Senior: Overall the school is amazing and I would choose to go there again if I could go back in time. Teachers truly care and give you learning experiences that are truly unique and meaningful beyond general schooling. Things such as Globie youth service day, MUNSA, and our schools yearly field trips are among the many experiences that shape the students and community around ISA. However, I did give the school a four out of five stars and this is not a fair representation because if possible I would give a four and a half or even a little higher, but there needs to be something in place to identify one major downfall (or upside, depending on how you look at it) to the schools format. All students take the highest level class they can take based on prerequisites at that time. This is because ISA believes if we are to separate the classes out then we are to dilute the possibilities and diversity of thought in each classroom.

Alamo Heights High School

• Alamo Heights Independent School District, TX
• 9-12
• 293

Senior: Alamo Heights is a great school district. During my time studying there I enjoyed the strong academics and multiple extracurricular activities. Some of the teachers are amazing and are really knowledgeable, and reachable. The facilities are a little old but the city of Alamo Heights just approved a new fund to rebuild the school. The new facilities will be amazing, there will be a whole new classroom and shop for the rocketry program which is one of the coolest things you could do in high school. The only thing that I would change about the school is the social environment, a lot of its students live in a bubble, cheating is a severe problem at the school, but no student receives a real punishment because the administration doesn't want to deal with the parents. However, most people are really friendly and the counselors are really helpful.

Reagan High School

• North East Independent School District, TX
• 9-12
• 527

Senior: I’m a senior at reagan! And all 4 years have been fun! The one thing about Reagan is that it is EXTREMELY comepetitive. All kids in the first quartile are taking At least 3 AP classes. All teachers I’ve had are quite helpful. The material , as long as you are actively engaged, is quite easy. The administration is firm but that’s understandable. One thing I would like to see change is the enabling of troubled students. The majority of kids work very hard and show up on time and sober. While the troubled kids get free passes. They get absences changed, help on tests when they are not mentally incapable, they are treated like children but act like deliquents.

Senior: Claudia Taylor "Ladybird" Johnson HS is one of the finest high schools in the district. There is plenty of oppertunity to be successful and earn a meaningful education with the help of the teacher and other staff members. There are lots of clubs and honot societies that can fulfill almost every interest, and each and every one tries to find a way to give back to the community. From dramatic school plays, to volunteer oppertunities, to food/clothes drives the Johnson community helps out our city in every way it can!

Eleanor Kolitz Hebrew Language Academy

• Public School
• San Antonio, TX
• K-8
• 5

Parent: We have three children at EKHLA and feel very strongly that they are getting a stellar education. Over the last five years we have had wonderful teachers and only one (who no longer works there) that was not up to par. The students are nurtured, supported and respected and they are held to high standards both in their behavior and in their academics. The coursework is rigorous as is the homework, but their teachers are always ready and willing to spend extra time outside of school to tutor their students. The Principal is honest and doesn't mince words, yet the students love her warmth and personal attention. To top it all off, they are learning Hebrew daily, which is just the cherry on top. We are very happy at EKHLA.

Central Catholic High School

• Private School
• San Antonio, TX
• 9-12

Alum: CC is a San Antonio institution and excels at academics, sports and helping young boys become young men. CC is definitely not for everyone but if you want your son to learn what ot tales to become a man and to serve others while being held accountable, this is the place. In addition, the Brotherhood (network) which spans generations will help your son in the future, especially when it comes to career amd business. Many call it the Central Catholic Mafia because we get thkngs done to help eachother and there are very many accomplished alumni in business and government.
