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.

This was a great school with a positive enviornment until Trinity Basin Preperatory bought them and made too many changes too fast. I don't even recognize my school anymore. They are making it too strick, and taking everything that was fun and exciting about school away or limiting it. I would not recommend this school any longer.

The worst parts are the lack of communication and overall disorganization. The best part about High Point is that both the students and staff are so close with each other that you never really feel alone.

I love that at high Point you typically get really good teachers that actually care about what they are teaching you. I also love that you are able to do everything you want you don't have to pick one thing. The only thing I wish our school could improve on would be having more electives like FFA and stuff like that.

I’d rather have an upside down mop with goggely eyes and wax lips teach my kids then to send my children here. At least the mop would not be cruel and damaging the to kids. I bet the mop could pull better test scores too. Verdict- mop wins

My daughter went here from 1st-4th grade. We felt that she had a learning disability and got her tested in the 2nd grade only to find out she was dyslexic. She did not get any assistance at this school until she was in the 3rd grade and her homeroom teacher made her feel like she was dumb. Onward to...
