So far my experience has been a positive one. The counselor had assisted me with class selections. Participating in student success and advisory classes helps prepare me for what is happening now and in the future. I don't have any change recommendations at this time.

I love Tanque verde high school. My time in this district started in 2021 when I was a freshman. At first I felt so isolated but it was not long until I found friends and people I will love forever. The academics are great, and once you find your people you will have a great experience.

A good school. It really helped me to prepare for college and offered a lot of AP and some DE classes. The staff is really awesome except for a few who really were not great, but they were still good teachers.
