Teachers are very motivational to your studies especially in class, they have passion for their subject and teach incredible. All staff members are friendly and easy to talk to especially when you need help whether it’s school related or home related, there’s always someone you can talk to. Thelma Ross Salinas STEM Early College High School is definitely challenging but as long as you are determined to get that associate and 2 years worth of college by the time you graduate, it is definitely worth it. Thus having very high results and passing percentage in each tested category in the end of year STAAR exams
Our teachers are always getting us to become involved such as joining activities and clubs being provided for the student body. Everyone at STEM doesn’t discriminate which makes this campus very inclusive, considerate, and understandable. We work together in order to achieve our standards of what an education matters to make communities more successful and proactive towards student learning. Have different types of aid such as flashcards, charts, and implement other resources from recommended textbooks for each class in order to have student obtain information stored when exam time comes around. Students can get a study buddy; forming study groups, getting to know better what the school consist.
Although my school is small and does not offer the same opportunities as regular high schools, such as sports or pep rallies, I love my school because you get to know almost every student and you form connections with teachers. Teachers are able to help students one on one so that they may better understand the subject. Students are given the chance to enroll in AP courses, along with dual enrollment.
