I have been in this school for two years and next year I'll be a freshman. To me us girls are more like family not just friends. We help each other out when we can. The teachers are great they know how to teach you and they will push you to do your best. These two years have been the best school years

I have been at this school since the sixth grade and next year i will be a freshmen. I have to honestly say that I have not had a nice ride. This school has stressed me out soooo much. Between the bickering of the girls and the very heavy work load, it's enough to make you want to pull your hair out.

The laptops do help, but if anything it worries parents more and more. They may help us every now and then, but half the time we're not using them [for school work anyway] and when we do it requires us to get on the internet which opens many [bad] opportunities. I would not recommend this school. Read less

I would like to congratulate the school on a job well done. Graduating their first senior class. I would like to also say I'm concerned that my second chip wants to leave the school. Choosing woodrow's AP program. I have confidence she will do well because of the work ethic instilled in her at Rangel.

I have been at Irma Rangel for two years. I will attend the 8th grade next year. I would definetly recommend this school for other students because of the learning opportunities and the extracurricular activities offered.

My friends was giving financial aid to attend a summer camp for two weeks at Princeton in California. And every grade level has a summer camp where the students can attend. The work is very tiring sometimes, but it helps with success. We also have what is called Little Sister/Big Sister program where a younger student is assigned a 'Big Sister' from the upperclassmen. It really helps with friendship and communication skills. I love this school! Read less

My daughter attended Irma Rangel for the last four years and I would highly recommend it.

She has blossomed into a wonderful, organized, responsible, highly functional young woman and I have to give a lot of credit to Rangel for being a part of that.

I have to admit that Irma Rangel YWLS was the 2nd choice school for my daughter after William B. Travis. At the time, Travis represented the diverse high level educational and social environment that I wanted for her. I was disappointed that Travis did'nt accept her, but I can't begin to give the administration

Irma should've been our 1st choice and probably would've been had I taken a closer look at the school and not at the fact that it's an all female student body. From the moment that we stepped into the school, the staff was welcoming and exhibited a pride that's evident in all they do. The school works to expose the girls to all opportunities and has high expectations of them academically. My daughter loves the school and is excelling in her classes. Her dad and I like the atmosphere. Read less
