I currently work for NCISD. I also graduated from New Caney HS c/o '06. I used to have the same opinions as all other 'students'...back then when I was attending. But now that I have graduated and taken a step back to look at the district, it is actually a really great school district. Not all teachers or staff workers are dedicated to the kids, of course not. There will always be those few, but for the most part I thought it was pretty good. We are 1 out of 29 in the whole state of Texas to be a Recognized District. that means, for All of you who hate the district and dropped out-> that out of hundreds of school districts in Texas only 29 are Recognized and we are 1 of them! There you go, that's all I have to say.

I went to this school from 2004-2007, and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I am honored to have participated in one of the best Academic Decathlon teams in the state, and our advanced classes were where the students who cared about their education could really advance. Bottom line is, for a student with drive and ambition, this school is top-notch. My sisters are both currently attending, and neither of them have any real complaints. The school has cleaned up quite a bit since my freshman year, found more stable administrators, and has a more diverse and dedicated student body than ever before.

Principals and teachers are fair. Acdec and Journalism are usually tops in state. Like all schools, there are areas needing improvement (Sports). But overall, this is a good place of learning. I learned a lot there.

The schools are great! The students and parents that have problems are 'Problem People'!

I graduated from New Caney High School not too many years ago. I was a student in the district since 2nd grade. All I can tell you is that I hated the district. As a student, I could see the problems with the administration: there was a HUGE lack of communication among all levels of the staff, and for the most part, it seemed as though the teachers wished to be somewhere else. I am now about to graduate with my own teaching certificate and I will NEVER set foot back into any of NCISD's schools. If you want your child to get an education, choose any other district but this one.

Most complaints about New Caney High School do not relate to the current administration. The current principals are very competent and set a good example for other high schools. They deserve a pat on the back. And, my child goes to NCHS and she likes it.

My son started at the 9'th grade campus in November and so far I am really impressed. I see the teachers seem to really care about the students and their future. My son told me he felt the students were very friendly and as a new kid thats good to hear.

I hate this school. I have only been in it a short while, but I've had a bad experience already. I vulgar language used astounds me. There is no disapline in this school. The students tell me of countless places they'd rather be. Most of the teachers seem cold and unaccomidating! This is not a good place to send children, especially if they have good standards for their learning. Not only is it not a safe emvironment, but it's not a welcoming evironment. Save your children and put them somewhere else. - a currently enrolled student
