I'am a senior at mineral wells high school , i think i know better than anyone else that this is a good school. if into drungs then it just shows that you have a bad head on your sholders. we have lots of good teachers ready to teach any student that is willing . iam aslo in soccer, we have a good amount of students come out to watch us play so dont sell our team short. if you are looking for an unforgetable and high sprited school year for you child, MWHS is for you.

The teachers and the principals are very friendly and helpful. They want the students to be successful as much as the parents. I do feel if the requirement for students is to take a foreign language in order to graduate, give more choice other than just Spanish.

I love how everyone is trying to spread the propaganda that Mineral Wells is an amazing place to put a serious student in need of college prep. I am a sophomore here and let me tell you that you shouldn't believe everything you hear. The school is overflowing with dugs and alcohol, and if you think I am kidding just find our seniors, band kids and even the freshman down the street on Friday nights after an unsuccessful football game. Also the number and availability of classes that the students have asked for such as a French and sign language class is unreachable due to budget cuts caused by the unneeded four story monstrosity we call a stadium. Also, if you are an athlete, the only way to get any attention is to join football. Overall if you are really that desperate for an education MWHS is the place for you.

Mineral Wells High School is helping me become the person I want to be by the time I graduate. Mineral Wells HS has offered me with leadership expeirences and a chance to excell extremely high in my academics. Most of the teachers are fantastic, they teach us more in depth, and makes the subject fun and easy. And the school had offered so many extra-cirricular activities and club, you must be real lucky to be in a school where everyone is really friendly, everyday as I walk through the doors, every teacher is smiling and just waiting to teach us more to get ready for college. Mineral Wells High School is one of the greatest schools in Texas.

Poor availability of AP classes and extracurricular activities. Drugs are everywhere. Not a place for a serious student to prepare for college.

Fantastic school with tons of activities for kids, teachers who go the extra mile, and an administration that is continuously seeking ways to improve the school's offerings. My son is excelling in his classes and I feel he is getting a wonderful education. It has a beautiful and well-maintained building, and I feel it is exceptionally safe.
