At my time at Clear Lake high school, I've loved every moment there. I am on the football team, and it has been constantly fun and never have I regretted joining the team. Every day during practice, everyone encourages each other on and off the field. Even during school hours, Clear Lake is one of the most comforting campuses I have been on.

Clear Lake has been pretty nice to me for the past almost 4 years and I've felt very welcomed into in and I hope other kids have had my same experience.

The schools activities were very fun especially because they would host events every now and then. I never really had any bad experiences other than teachers not being able to keep students under control which would hinder my focus on learning.

We attended a district wrestling tournament. The school is very clean and new. The students were very motivated in their competition. The school offers many academic and extra curricular opportunities. The teachers are well educated and also encourage good character.st

This school needs to read the Sandy Hooks Promise. They don't seem to care.

The new leadership does not care about student success or well-being. All they care about is sports. There are other sports- centered schools in CCISD, bring the old principal back!
