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.

Don't believe everything you read. This is a great school. We moved here and saw that this school district wasn't rated that high. We were concerned that our son wouldn't get a good education. We were so surprised with how awesome this school is. My son was on the wrestling team and took welding. They offer so many classes that are fun and help kids who decide not to go to college at least have a job in a trade. This school is a hidden gem.

Little Elm High School allows you to see a clear view of the major educational differences. On one side academic students are achieving high scores on state testing, AP testing, and other key parts of a college career, however, on one side, students are skipping, failing standardized state testing, and overall only 50% of students obtain further education.

My overall experience with Little Elm High school has been that of enjoyability and prosperity. The facility members and teachers at this school have done a wonderful job at not only making me comfortable and informed about school and the world around me, but also making every other student feel ready for the world after high school.
