Little Elm High School

This school is the worst school my daughter ever attended. The staff are very rude,unprofessional. You can address any concerns,good,bad! Your issues will not be handled in a Timely manor. I'm so glad this will be my daughter last year aswell!!!!! They also loose the students credits,grades aswell as schedules. If your child can attend another school take advantage of that. RUN FAR FROM THIS SCHOOL!

Moved here from Plano. Renting only thank goodness. Our daughter's first and last year at this high school. This school is behind academically, some teachers and staff scoff at how well rounded our daughter is saying, "oh your from Plano." and Proud of it. Now they are trying to make the curriculum like Plano because now they realize they are behind in all areas. Teachers don't allow kids to go to bathroom without permission at lunch, the kids are watched like criminals and treated like children. There is so much racism and division going on in this school. I hope the new prinicpal can bring this school up to date and help end the mistreatment of the students here. The overall system of the school is out of dadte and the counselors need to learn to be more efficient in dealing with scheduling issues. The staff needs an overhall, those that don't like their job or are stressed need to be dismised. Time for new blood. The principal is great he needs to udate staff memebers on better treatment of students and policies. Thank goodness our daughter is well educated by Plano Standards. This school has potential just needs a lot of change to make it modern.

Please! I wish I could afford to get my son into Legacy Christian Academy. If I told you what I "really" think of this school, I would go over the character limit. EVERYTHING the prior people said about this place is on the money. If I had the time I would home school my son. They leave it up to the student to communicate on their behalf, among other things. Staff never calls you back in a timely manner to discuss things that are going on with your child and like I said, I am about to run out of character space to say what I really feel about this school. So I am going to leave it at that and let you fill in the blanks!!!!

My daughter has attended this school for 3 years now and I am more than happy that it is her last year. The classes are overcrowded. There are rude and unprofessional staff there. Some staff members even cuss at their students. Bullies, drugs, teen pregnancy, you name it and you can excel at it here at this school.

My children have attended the high school for 2 years and the administrators are very unprofessional. I have attempted to address my concerns in a polite and professional manner and I have been ignored. I don't feel the kids receive adequate academics and the things they get in trouble for are extremely petty. My son received in school suspension because the teacher would not allow him to use the bathroom & he went without her permission due to he could not hold it. Little Elm is an awesome community to live in but the schools need improvement big time!

This school is not a very good school, in fact it would almost terrible if it wasn't for the location. My son has some problems with his Mathematics, and Reading Skills and nothing helped him. He failed the year, and it happened the next year after that. It was not his fault. How do I know it wasn't? The schools in Little Elm are terrible! After I moved him to a different School District, he was doing so much better! The school is OKAY for people that are very smart or somewhat smart in the mathematics, english, and reading skills but if you have trouble in one of them, this school is not for your Child.

Great school! Incredible school with great community involvement. They go the extra mile for the kids and that's what matters.

Good school getting better. The school is getting better and staying true to it's small town roots. Some growing pains since the small town mentality has had to give in to big school challenges and costs. Overall, it's a great school to work at compared to Plano type schools where teachers and students are only a number. Should only get better.

The school system needs a lot of help. The students are not getting the education they deserve and they do not prepare them for college at all. As parents we have to even stay on top of the teachers to make sure things are graded properly.

The quality of the teaching in this school district is horrible. There are too many kids and not enough control inside/outside the classroom.
