I love the way there is alot of helping and caring workers at the school. Never has there been a day where someone will not ask how are you or just give you a great smile. It makes you feel at home.

About the tests

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.
