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.

The school emphasizes a well-rounded education and strives to prepare students for success in college and beyond. With dedicated teachers and staff, Godley High School fosters a positive learning environment where students can thrive academically, socially, and personally. Small town home feeling, we all come together as a community in a crisis. We love our schools!!

I came from a private Christian school my sophomore year So it was definitely a culture shock. The school is overcrowded and self taught. There is an expansion being built but I won't be able to enjoy any of the extra things. My sibling will so I'm happy about that.

I moved to Godley in 8th grade. I have to say it is a lot better than my old school district! I love the opportunities the high school gives us to further our skills in whatever career pathway we may choose.

The pr...

I love the administration at this campus. From what I can tell, Mr Carnes has created and up beat atmosphere there that allows kids and staff to really enjoy being there. My son was a new freshman, starting out knowing no one. He has said the students have made him feel very welcomed.
