I admire that CityLab High School is a school with less students. Therefore teachers and college ambassadors can focus on each student individually. Attending CityLab High School gives me the chance to succeed in so many of my classes and be acknowledged in a inspirational way.

Every year at CityLab is a new and unique experience, through everything ive always been able to rely on the amazing teachers to support me. I know most students do not like school but my teachers and friends definitely make me not want to miss a day.

as a 3 year student and soon to be graduating senior i can safely say that citylab is definitely a school lacking in many areas. the communication from administration to staff to students is so poor its like playing a game of telephone. They very illy prepare students for major tests and events like the SAT or TSI, only telling students they will be testing the day before administering the exam, more often that not with zero prep.

This school has taught my child how to think. I know he will get into a good college now.

Not great. Impossible to communicate with administrators or even teachers at times. Not my first kid nor high school. Worst communication out of any school we've attended so far in DISD.
