School Reviews
2 10/10/2025
The school is poorly run by Principal Weeks. Problems with drugs, rules that have nothing to do with educational progress, admin staff that can not speak English properly or can not answer the simplest question.
Some teachers are ok, the rest are inadequate. Most of the teachers are rude and belligerent.
The building is old and in need of updating.
Band program offers only limited instruction. Led by befuddled Mr Belk the band program has no chance of delivering quality instruction.
If a parent is in the PTA their kids get preferred treatment and break school rules without consequence.
Honors classes only bore their students, no inspiration from the teachers. Given arts and crafts projects for social studies projects, thanks MS H.
We will be leaving the FWISD as the quality of education is substandard.
