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.

The overall atmosphere is pretty good, yet there are things that need work. We need more involvement from the teachers for example helping students out when they are struggling in that certain subject. Teachers need to actually go up to the board and work out problems to help the students better their knowledge.

Moody High School is a great representation of how a high school should function and connect with their students. They give as many resources as possible and are always willing to help. The culture has been brought in is outstanding and creates a better work ethic for students. The staff is very reliable on getting students ready for college and provide all the things we need to be ready. I would encourage any kid to come here because the care about their students and put them first.
