The people here are respectful, polite, and hard working... at least some are. there are some people that give you quite a hard time, especially when you don't need it.

Crystal City High School has done a great job for their students. The teachers try their best to help all students. I would like to see our school have more dual credit classes just because we have a community college in our town. Even the small town next to us has many more dual credit classes to offer. I would also like to see the counselors pushing juniors and seniors to apply to a college and help them along the process. A little more enthusiasm from the front desk in the morning would be beneficial. Hosting more school events would benefit the student body in many ways.

I love the diverse study body we have at CCHS. I love how we are a small high school meaning everyone talks to everyone. We have a lot of heart and pride for Crystal City. We excel not only in sports, band, but academics. We have a lot go getters who are willing to go out into the world to achieve success. My experience at CCHS have been great, especially as a senior everything is bittersweet. I sure will miss it.

Let me be honest here, this school is the pure definition of agony. I could never of imagined how terrible a school could be. This school should learn on how to become a better school.

Crystal City high school is a great school. It is the only success high school in Crystal City. The principal and staff are wonderful and work with my son to help him succeed. When you walk on the campus you can feel the positive atmosphere.

This School needs major changing among the administrators. CCISD has barely made it by passing TAKS. If nothing is done soon, I gurantee you the state will get involved. I read that our atheletic program is strong, I would have to disagree. Varsity football for the past three seasons has had no more...
