Stephenville High School

Heavily populated little high school that places an exaggerated emphasis on football. I also believe their dress code is a bit too strict. They should make resources more available for students who need help passing their classes rather than worry about beard stubble and facial piercings.

Football is first and foremost the focus of this school. Then comes the other sports. Then comes academics. The electives are limited. The science and math courses are bound in. The students are not pushed. The ones that would do good are buried under pointless busy work. Not a very good school at all.

We are a rural school that puts out good Athleats who are honor role students. They have Brains and Brawn.

The academic programs are average. Academics take a 'back seat' to athletics, mainly football.

I have been disappointed in the education at the high schhol level. Our child has had one disappointedment after another. Even althletics is a disappointment. It is about coaches bullying the kids instead of making a connection and showing the kids how to love, improved and excell at a sport. I too work in the education field and know what is required. The teachers ,especially in the math dept seem burned out and have lack of support for the kids, with the exception of a few. It is sad, having a child who has always attended this district, and loved school and now he hates it! The whole issue of politics and the school benefiting a hand fully of kids is an ongoing problem. It makes me sick that positve changes cannot be made to help every child excell in the classroom and in sports.

Great academic programs catered to level of ability. Extracurricular activities great, almost anything available. Last time I checked, no latin, french, or german available as an elective.
