hello my name is Cecilia and i really like my kids knows this system of school if i have 3 kids what can i do if i want 3 of them go to this school. Sorry my english is not really good thank u

I like the school . The teachers are great , the staff in the office are very nice and helpful. I also like the fact that they don't tollerate bullying. The only complain I have is that they have limited bathroom breaks. They are only allowed two bathroom breaks. This should be changed. What about the young girls that are going through changes in their lives. They need more than two bathroom breaks.

Wow! This school is amazing! They have high academic expectations, and the teachers are very competent, and accessible. They use behavior modification techniques through their point system, and I like the cultural diversity of the teachers and students. I feel it makes my children more open-minded and culturally sensitve to others. I love that my children are provided with challanging academic programs, and would recommend this school to anyone who wants nothing less than academic success for their children. :)

Excellent charter school. Most of theeducators are Turkish so there can be some language barriers at times they can be difficult to understand but the actual education and care of the children cannot be beat. outstanding test scores and amazing ideas going on in this school. Dont judge the school based upon the building which is housed in an old grocery store its wonderful inside and very secure.small and intent on TEACHING instead of social drama. I am personally SO happy this school is here and would recc it to everyone

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.

About the tests


Texas uses Accountability Ratings to indicate the overall performance of each school and district. The ratings are based on TAKS test results, dropout rates for grades 7 and 8 and school completion rates for grades 9 through 12. Schools and districts rated under standard accountability procedures are designated as Exemplary, Recognized, Academically Acceptable or Academically Unacceptable. Schools and districts rated under alternative education accountability (AEA) procedures are designated as either AEA: Academically Acceptable or AEA: Academically Unacceptable.
