It was a pretty good experience. I didn't like all my teachers but most of them were good. I like the campus.

I honestly really like and value my high school, it's the school culture and the student's behavior that is continually excused and not enforced by the administration. This causes bad and harmful behavior from students, and they aren't punished.

Overall my experience at Lake Travis High School was good. I was able to thrive as a person through the athletics and challenging courses I took. Also as an African American there was not a lot of diversity but not a lot of racism either.
