All of these nasty comments don't really sound correct to me, a person who talks to anyone and everyone. I, like everyone else, am comfortable in this school because I am accepted by everyone. There is no favoritism here. Seriously, I don't even know who the 'jocks' are because they are treated just like everyone else. There are those who stick out, but they are like for just those reasons. This schoolrocksrocks!!! Read less

My children have attended schools is 3 different districts and Community ISD is the worst one ever.

Parent involvement is low. Read less

Motivated teaching staff. High availability of extracurricular activities. Low level of parent involvement, but those that are involved are priceless. Teachers focus on each individual learner and truly care for their students. Biggest issue is dresscode, and that is a blessing.
