Be warned however, i would NOT recommend moving to basis after you are in 6th grade at another school, because for people are doing algebra 1 in 7th grade, have separate science classes for bio, chem, and physics. However, you will be rewarded, as (In my experience) in UIL, we regularly win most of the awards. Not too great sports programs though. And as other reviews say, your student will have to study. The motto is literally "Exellence through Rigor" Not much bullying though

Start with the administration that will "hear" your voice but they don't listen. They push subjects down to young people who are not ready for the content either morally, emotionally and intellectually. The subjects are mandated by a panel disconnected from the schools and students. Administrators don't have any reason to change the curriculum as all they care about are rankings and money. They have instructors that don't understand their students. They mandate AP subjects to 14 year old ninth graders as if they are 19 and 20 year old college individuals, you cannot choose otherwise and the head of school does nothing! ..

One of them (a coach) had told me once that they "didn't know where to put me" and when I would ask for advice to be better gave me half booty cheek answers. Refused to actually coach kids correctly or effectively. This coach in particular that I'm talking about was the head soccer coach my junior year of high school. I never talked back , always did what I thought they expected ,but yet was still not given the equal opportunity to play or be coached. She teared me down even more when I had bad days and never said anything when I did good. The day I decided to up and quit was when most of my team ganged up on me one morning just shouting horrible things at me making me even more de shuffled mentally. Not all of them did but most of the under class men female dogs did and I was nothing but nice and encouraging to them. Keep in mind, the coaches just stood there and WATCHED them tear me down, I walked off the field and went home. I'm not sure if the coaches there are just flat out miserable and enjoy breaking kids spirits but this clearly still affects me if I'm currently writing a review 2 years later. Also Mrs lane who's the attendance person or whatever she does there is trashy and unprofessional , I told her that my uncle took his life and she asked me why I wasn't really at school and when I told her I was depressed and rather be at work she flat out told me "why do you need money you have beats on your head" (the beats headphones). Which if you're reading this , I BOUGHT them with the money I worked for. She also attempted to embarrass me by trying to call me out saying I didn't want to graduate by asking other students in FRONT OF ME "do you want to graduate" and then proceeded to move onto the next person and ask them the same thing. She asked three or four other students near us when we were in the library to fix whatever we needed TOO graduate. There was about 20-30 kids in the library at the time of this event. I walked out in front of her because it doesn't matter who you are you're NOT going to try and tear down a student in front of their peers who's clearly trying to seek help. I was quite literally willing to risk not graduating because again, my uncle took his life and I had been previously depressed that whole year but yet she didn't care until it was the end of the school year and tried to embarrass me ? Many other students at the time agreed that what she did was wrong and that she's ALSO treated them that way or similar. And yes I do have depression, I have papers for it , my mental health was just not okay that year. It's one thing to give constructive criticism and I know for a fact that I CAN take constructive criticism but it's another when you're tearing down a minor to make yourself feel better. These are grown adults in their 40's or 50's like are you serious ? I hope no one ever has to endure the mental torture I have gone through not just there but in life period. This school needs to re-evaluate their whole coaching staff because their treatment just wasn't right. In no world will that ever be right.

However, on a more serious note, the dress code is very misogynistic, and has rules more targeted towards taking away students individuality rather than safety. An example of this is them banning pony bead bracelets for no particular reason, and girls getting dress coded far more frequently than the boys are, even if they are both technically breaking dress code. I cant truly explain the sexism this school enforces in a yelp review, but you can check the schools dress policy and you'll see what I mean.

And whenever I have to go to the office cuz I did something, before I'm able to explain (Since I usually haven't done anything wrong) the principal cuts me off or the AP ignores what I have to say. I guess I have more of an issue with the people in charge here than the school itself, still, a pretty crappy experience here. Would not recommend.
