I had a great experience here. My teachers were awesome. I was in the orchestra and had many amazing experiences with my group. I also was able to several dual credit classes and it's helped me advance in my college career much faster.

My experience while attending Mesquite High School was a decent one I was able to make friends and grow a strong bond with the people in my sport. I hope to see more of an effort when it comes to academics and more of interest into making sure students are prepared for college.

Starting off with the good, the principle Mr. Johnson is amazing. He really cares about his students.

Transitioning to the bad, there are quite a few horrible teachers that have no care in the world for students and their well-being's. Dress code and the cafeteria food is absolutely horrible too.
