My overall experience at Longview High School is that while they advertise that they do their best to help students, it isn't always the case. There are a lot of resources, but some of the staff are what really make my experience less positive.

Overall, I have had a good almost 4 year experience with Longview High School. I like the dual credit program and have found it really helpful. I think the worst part of my experience was the lack of Arab/Muslim population but that is the whole city and not just the school. I hope in the future there will be more diversity of people so other students/staff can learn more about different cultures, countries, and religions.

Longview ISD has the best educational offerings in East Texas. I choose to send my three children to the district, and there are many choices in the area. I recommend the school district to anyone moving to the area or looking for a challenging curriculum.

The best high school east of I-45. Longview High School has set transfer records into the school for 4 straight years. Why? Robotics (Tech Bowl) national champs 3 consecutive years; 64 consecutive 'superior' ratings for marching band; Established International Baccalaureate program; More dual credit...
