GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

For the past 4 years, I have been attending Aransas Pass High School. It has been a wild ride, to say the least. One thing that stands out about this school is the teachers. They pour their heart and soul into helping the kids. They helped guide me in the direction of furthering my education and making me realize my worth. For that, I am beyond grateful for this school. No kid is ever left behind.

My experience in school has always been bad never wanted to be there still don’t it’s not that the School is Bad it’s just me. But some teachers are nice the rest believe they own the entire school. The community is great when they use their voices and not hide behind their walls.

We have not been very impressed with this school at all. We've moved from Rockport and the difference is overwhelming. The leadership and progress at APISD is comical. Although, the biggest difference I've noticed is the lack of support from parents and the community. It's heartbreaking.

There is enough people to maintain the school; it has extracurricular activities and such proving to be a regular old highschool, nothing special, and it's not bad either. Pretty big school, too
