I am a current student of C.E.King High school and I don't agree with any of the rules they punish us for,they care more about the dress code than the education.They really don't want to understand your problem about getting to class,the real problem is the back hallway is always crowded because some students stand around and talk but the AP's don't care what the situation is they'll give you a D-hall even if it's not your fault,they don't care!I wouldn't recommend anyone go to this school,I wouldn't if I didn't have to,but we all have to do things we don't want to.
I recently graduated from King and i must say that i enjoyed my time there! I am attending a University now and feel prepared. I loved my high school and all the teachers there, it's a great place to learn and have fun. It isn't the schools fault if a few kids don't apply themselves, or attempt to follow the rules. I loved the principals, teachers, constables, and staff, they made me feel like I was at home!
This school is a horrible school for children to attend because the education is behind and the administration is unprofessional
I am a recent graduate of C.E. King High School and King is only focused on getting the students to pass the TAKS test. King does NOT prepare you for college-I took AP as well-its basically a joke. The students/community is not motivated to strive beyond the 'Sheldon' life. The school district doesn't look for opportunities that could greatly benefit the talented students. They should invest in motivating students with other extracurricular/academic activities.
My son attends CE King High School. I am very disappointed in this school. I understand the concept of the dress code but it should not be the main focus. The punishments for small things are taken to the extreme. There is little or no communication between the staff and parents. The safety of every child that walks or has to ride a bike to school is not taken seriously. If I had a choice my son would never again attend this school.
I graduated at the top of my class from C.E. King High School a few years ago, & recently graduated from a university. Although I took all the AP courses offered at C.E. King, I later found that they were weak in material, and prepared me very little for college. I compared what fellow college class mates learned in their H.S. & found that while they were learning in college things that they had already seen in high school, I was introduced to the material for the first time, and therefore felt that my learning background had put me at an automatic disadvantage. This was in all subject areas. Ultimately, the goal at King was to get students to pass the TAKS & graduate, with no emphasis on taking the SAT & going to college. I would not recommend attending if you are serious about preparing for college, If I could-I-would-not-have-gone-there.
This school my son goes to is a great place the teachers are highly and proffesionaly experienced but I think the problem is not our childrens grades is the environment and the rules this school imposes on them for example my son tells me that they worry too much about the dress code and less about their grades another thing is that when my son is late that the principles or teachers dont care if they come all the way from another class they need more time other than that the school is alright
My daughter goes to C.E king High School the hole time last year she had nothing but problems about who her friends were or what she was wearing nothing did she ever get in trouble about her studys. I think the school system needs to worry about the kids studys not about thier clothen. I don't know about other parents but I send my kids to school to learn so they can get somewhere in life with thier eduction. Kids worry enough about what they look like they don't need the school on thier back . They need to put more attchen to the gang activity in the school and the kids that are always fighting about race and who is better than the other.They need to have more activities for the kids in school.
I have had two children at King. One graduated in 2000 and has gone on to a great position with UT Medical Branch. He was well prepared for his position in the real world. My younger child has had health issues and will not attend King after this year, but from the time he was there, he had wonderful caring teachers.
I am a former student. I graduated May 31,1991. This was the best school I could have gone to. I have many lasting memories. The faculty here, in part, made me the person I am today(a registered nurse). I will look back on my high school days fondly for the rest of my life. Sincerely, Melissa {Jodi) Collins. Class of 1991
