Texas High has provided me with many incredible opportunities throughout my high school career. The teachers have by far been the best experience of the high school. They are helpful and supportive. I really don't know if there is any thing I would change. It has been great!

At Texas High, I felt like I could reach out to teachers and administrators if I had issues with anything. Since, I've graduated, they've added security measures to ensure the safety of students and teachers. That was something that concerned me in the past. Overall, my experience was great, I didn't encounter many problems, and if I did, my teachers would always be there to help.
