GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

I have attended Paradise for 14 years and it is the best school i would say. I love the atmosphere and the teachers. I have learned a lot about life and how to succeed after High School. My teachers have been great mentors to me.

Good small town feel, great teachers that care, excellent rating from state of tx, but has its cliques with bullying that school handles, but not well. My sister graduated with a-b grades went to college and struggled.

I like the variety of clubs we have. I am involved in the dance team, band, one act play, and many other groups. It's great knowing that after you have a not so good day that you can go to these clubs and have a good time.

I love Paradise. The teachers can be challenging but all they want is for you to do well when you go to college and in high school. They are all willing to work with you if you don't understand something. Administration is friendly. Everyone of the staff is polite and friendly! Love it here!
