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.

As a high school senior at Trinidad Garza ECHS, I can say with full confidence that I have had a great experience and this is one of the best early college program in the district.

During my time attending Trinidad Garza ECHS, I was able to transform from an underachieving student to one that strives for academic success. The teachers and other faculty at my school encourage us to do our bests and foster a welcoming learning environment. This school has encouraged me to work harder to do the best I can when it comes to academics and more. While this school has a great learning environment, there could be more diversity among the students.

My experience with Garza is an overly positive one. I've never had any bad experiences and am glad to have been apart of the family. I'm in my senior year in high school and I've been taught so much by the nice teachers and staff; I've come a long way since my freshman year. I believe this school has prepared me for what's to come in my future.
