I recently graduated from Guyer High School and I have nothing but excellent things to say. I am not enrolled in the Plan II Honors Program at the University of Texas @ Austin and I must say that my teachers prepared me well. The campus is beautiful. All of the resources (libraries, sports fields, weight

She is caring, compassionate, humble, and motivating. She leads by example and rarely is discouraged when others are. Although Guyer is relatively new (about 3 years old) it is a rising school. The location is also fabulous in an upper middle class suburban neighborhood. Guyer was great and it will continue to be a great High School. Read less

We are VERY displeased by this school. Although there are some good teachers, we've had more than our share of teachers who really don't seem to care about kids, who will not return calls or e-mails and who gossip about students to other students. The athletics are pathetic (boys athletics, that is).

Our experience with the administration is that they seem to support their teachers, but will not investigate problems. We've been at the school since it opened, and our level of dissatisfaction has grown each year. Read less

This is a great school and well run. Most of the teachers seem to care about their students and enjoy the opportunity to influence them. I would like more frequent communication from the teachers to the parents though.
