4.0 Junior

The thing I love most about Palacios High School is the environment. The teachers are encouraging, patient, and understanding. They are always there to lend a helping hand. In my opinion, they are the best in the county. The school here feels like a giant family, welcoming and loving.

5.0 Junior

During my years as a student of Palacios High School, I have made friends and memories that I will always hold dear to my heart. The thing I love most about Palacios High School is always making new memories and doing fun activities with my friends. The teachers also play a big role by teaching us material that we must know for our future. Of course, with a little fun conversation on the side about different subjects.

4.0 Alum

Palacios High School had amazing teachers that not only taught their subject with excellence, but also provided students with an amazing support system to show that they cared for students' success. However, I did not give the school five stars because they gave us a bad teacher for chemistry and our whole class now have no chemistry background to help with college chemistry.
