I believed the recruiting hype and sent my child to this school wanting a smaller, more personable environment. I find the pre-AP curriculum below standards and more like TAKS prep. While the teachers are personable and 'friendly' with students, I am disappointed in their lack of structure and rigor. The teachers are not well-supervised and do not 'team' to support students. The magnet coor. is rarely in the building and spends most of her time recruiting outside the building. There are very few computers/technology for student use. Smart students are admitted but will continue to score well on TAKS/Stanford despite the poor teaching quality. I do not believe that a students needs to be overloaded with homework--but I do expect good instruction and my student to be prepared for college. Think twice before experimenting on your child at this school.
Booker T Washington is going down every year. As a parent I care about my child and the education that he is getting from Booker T. Washington and I can say that it's sad.I not let my our kids go to Booker T Washington.

i am a 10th grade student here at btw and i do not like our new dress code,rules are principal and i'm sure all the other students would agree with me. i remember when the kids in my area always saying they would come to this school. but now we are under a new principal and he acts likes he doesn't care about the kids only about getting an exemplary. the rules are too strict now and it seems to me like everything is falling apart. i really want mr. wesley back he was the old principal he was there when my dad went to btw. i think everything should go back to how it was before.
