Cedar Park High School

My son is a sophomore at Cedar Park and participates in their amazing marching band program. They won first place for 4A at the Texas UIL State Championships in 2011 and they have taught the kids to aspire to excellence. My son feels like the band is a family, and is so happy to be at Cedar Park. He says the school has a friendly and accepting culture and that he has never witnessed any bullying. (He had problems with bullies in middle school so we are thrilled he has found a good school home.) Academically we are very happy with the faculty here. They are very accessible and supportive. The kids at Cedar Park (at least the band kids) seem to be a well-parented, respectful, happy bunch of kids.

I am a graduate from Cedar Park class of '09 and high school at CP was an exceptional experience. The teachers and staff made the difference... kids wanted to learn, teachers loved to teach and the counslers helped me find my potential and guided me through the years.

I would recommend cedar park to any. I'm new this year and the students are very friendly and welcoming. The teachers know when to be strict but also respect their students. Cedar Park has a lot of amazing clubs and programs. Don't let the size intimidate you, this is one of the best schools in Texas.

I am a current student a Cedar Park High School and about to be a sophmore. My first year was a wonderful one. The teachers are nice and they know when to be strict. The other students are very nice. I still remember my first day of school, a little freshman and I couldn't find my classroom. A random student came up to me and asked me for help. I thought that was the nicest thing ever! I will recommend Cedar Park High School to anyone I meet! I love it!

CPHS is amazing. Has amazing teachers and faculty. They have the nicest students and everything. It's very large, but in a good way. They have 4 separate buildings but that have the same material in them. Best school, hands down.

I am a sophomore at CPHS, and I love it. We have a very gifted staff who love to teach and devoted students who have high expectations for ourselves. Not only are our academics superior, but many of our sports and electives are great, as well. We are an open community with a diverse student body. Currently, we have 'the best drumline in the world' and 'the best choir of the region'. The drama department is also very talented. For those who want to attend a school where the students are serious about their work, yet also want to pursue their passions, Cedar Park High School is the school for you.

Cedar Park High School has great people. The teachers seem to love their jobs and the staff is friendly and caring. My daughter graduated from the school in 2007 after transferring from a Round Rock ISD school. She definitely 'felt' the difference right away. The staff and teachers really seem to care about the students. A home away from home feeling is the best was to describe the environment. Also, the athletics and band are always state contenders. Great academic environment.

We recently moved to the Austin area and did an extensive search of the area high schools. We decided on Cedar Park after narrowing down to Westwood, Bowie and Cedar Park. Our criteria was that the school had to provide Latin, Advanced Math and a well-thought out Computer Science pathway. Cedar Park met all the conditions and we are extremely happy with the school so far. We moved here from the Northeast and our children had an advanced cirriculum in their middle school. The guidance counselors and principal at Cedar Park were very accomodating to the needs of our children and placed them in the classes that were most appropriate, regardless of prerequisits. Cedar Park seems to have a great staff who look out for the best interest of the students. I got the feeling that the other 2 high schools we were considering were all about competition and grades.
