The Emma Plan in Hunters Ranch by D.R. Horton
San Antonio, TX 78253

Transferring to this district from Southwest High School has been a frustrating experience. From my very first day, I noticed how disorganized things were. During passing periods, the hallways are so crowded that I’ve been elbowed and bumped into multiple times, which makes moving between classes stressful and uncomfortable.Another issue is that the school seems to prioritize minor rules over more serious concerns. For example, I received two days of lunch detention simply for forgetting my ID at home and having to use a temporary sticker. Situations like this make it feel like the administration focuses more on enforcing small policies than addressing bigger problems that affect students daily.The school environment itself is also overwhelming. The building is old and poorly maintained, with flickering lights, holes in the walls, and an overall appearance that feels neglected. This creates an uncomfortable atmosphere that makes it harder to focus and feel positive about being there.Additionally, interactions with administrators have been discouraging. They often come across as rude, frequently blowing whistles without clear reason. Even when walking outside, conditions can be unpleasant, as dirt gets blown into your face, adding to the overall frustration of the school environment.Overall, my experience in this district has been disappointing due to the lack of organization, poor conditions, and what feels like misplaced priorities.

The food wasn't that bad, most of the teachers I got were actually really nice while also doing good at teaching. Multiple nice activities too!
