While it is natural for everyone directly connected with a school to laud and promote it, I feel that Keller High is as perfectly acceptable a school as in the surrounding areas. At the same time, I should mention that Keller High is trying to settle down and get a few of their kinks worked out.

Keller lacks highly successful curriculum and programs of neighboring districts like Southlake Carroll. For instance, due to overcrowding, my high school age son must attend classes that are 2 hours in duration. So he finishes an entire year's worth of teaching in half a year. However much of what

I'm no parent. I'm a student, and I'm not sure if you want to hear my opinion.

The teachers are mostly
