The best parts of school are making friendships and celebrating milestones like graduation. The worst parts for me include academic pressure and social struggles. Many people wish for changes like more mental health support, less focus on standardized testing, and more personalized learning to reduce stress and create a more inclusive environment.

Fairly standard High School, the Business Management and Entrepreneurship Academy is fun, the science department is kind of rough, but the History department is the best. Middle of the road in sports, there's a lot of extracurricular stuff which is fun.

Decent school with opportunities to get students engaged. I have seen teacher turnover and some teachers that need further coaching.

VR Eaton provided a learning environment that made my daughter, who did not like her previous high school, happy to go to school again and she has been excelling ever since. She got accepted to a couple of her college choices and ended up going to TTU on several academic scholarships.

This is one of the worst schools in the area. Fights every day. The administration is very micromanaged and they don’t care for the students. Please avoid this place at all cost!
