The environment at high island is very close meaning that if your in trouble, you have people to back you up. People are willing to help you along with the teachers. If you are ever in any trouble you can talk to someone about it. The counselor is always on top of getting kids the best academic career they can get, such as signing up for extracurriculars and college classes

Great school!It's small, but very inclusive when it comes to sports. Healthy learning environment as well.

The extracurricular opportunities span the full spectrum of interests. In south Texas, one might believe that Football is the 'end all, be all'; however, there are a full schedule of athletic, artistic and academic opportunities to participate in outside of the regular academic school schedule. I am thankful that my daughter has the opportunity to attend such a well rounded high school.
