Was a good experience and I loved some of the people but drama can get annoying. Wish some of the sports were better funded but were good nonetheless.

For the most part, my experience at Mineral Wells HighSchool was pretty good. The teachers for my core classes were very involved in my education and wanted to push me to do my best. However, when it came to CTE teacher they were hired based on who they knew, not their ability. A few (not all) also seemed to be able to do whatever they pleased without consequences.

mineral wells high school is a dedicated school district with their students... at younger grades. At the high school politics have a lot of what will go on around the school and which kids get which award.
