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.

Very good school. Teachers are very helpful and care about pushing students ahead. Has an early college program which is also very good.

My experience at Weslaco East High School was, as far as I can tell, rather good. Majority of the students and teachers are kind, and a great deal of them do their job extremely well. The office clerks are helpful, but the attendance ladies definitely have room for improvement; they're generally unfriendly and do not enjoy doing their job.
