I love my school. I would agree with Basketball being the number 1 priority at this school. But otherwise it is a safe and friendly environment. The teachers are so close to the students. If your child is in 6th grade they are lucky. They have the best teachers you can imagine. They get so close to them. They give them cool and funny nicknames. Like smiley. Its fun and I would prescribe this school. Its great to know everyone in the small school. Its not like Dallas. Thats one reason why most love this school and 2nd they like the education you get. We got one of the top high schools in the US. Also our elementary got Exemplary for I think almost every year I've been there. Its a great school and communtity.

Martin's Mill ISD is an amazing school district. The teaching staff is highly trained and do their job well. The students and teachers have a great relationship allowing both sides to feel comfortable and enjoy being at school. The quality of the academic programs is high, and Martin's Mill competes on the state level in many competitions. Extracurricular activites are varied, programs include athletics, music, and art. The level of parent involvement is extremely high. The community really embraces the school, and gives us all the support we need to fufill our dreams.

I was not a parent but a student of Martin's Mill High School. This school was fun and not real bad into drugs or clicks. The biggest problem with this school is that if your parent worked or went to school there then you were considered better than everyone else in the eyes of the teachers. You were given special priveleges and got away with just about everything. If you were a good basketball player you also got away with alot of things. I would not suggest attended this school if you want a good education or a potential at a scholarship for college. Mrs. Diehl is the only reason I would tell anyone to attend this school. She is the best teacher I have ever had and I am now a Junior in College. If your child is into sceince then attend this school.

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.
