My daughter has been at this school for 3 years. The first two were wonderful, but this year not so good. This year the communication with the parents has been limited, they haven't been offered as many extra curriculum activities, and my daughter and I are just overall unhappy with many of the changes. Hopefully things will improve but at this time I would not rate this school anywhere near 5 stars.

About the tests


In 2010-2011, the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) was used to test students in reading in grades 3 through 9; in writing in grades 4 and 7; in English language arts in grades 10 and 11; in mathematics in grades 3 through 11; in science in grades 5, 8, 10 and 11; and in social studies in grades 8, 10 and 11. TAKS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Texas. The grade 11 Exit Level TAKS is a high school graduation requirement. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.

The different student groups are identified by the Texas Education Agency; if there are a small number of students in a particular group, the state doesn't report data for that group.
