Both of our children have attended this school (class of 2018 and 2021). Our children have attended other schools in other states (Texas, Maryland and Hawaii) and this is by far the worst school, school district and state run education system we have experienced. Both of our children were high academic/AP students. If you children are high academic, then you HAVE to make the school what you need. However, you must go beyond and prepare on your own to be successful in AP exams. Only a few classes actually prepare you for the exam Calculus (Mrs Kennedy) and some English teachers. Science (Physics, Biology, Chemistry) and Government and Economics preparation are a joke. The new quarter schedule is pathetic and brutal to AP kids. If you are a AP/honors student, you will no longer have any opportunity to take any other classes besides the very basic subjects and never have access to more broadening and interesting classes. The principal does not care about the well being of the students as I have personally observed. He only cares about facilities, regulations and following district guidelines without any empathy or personal consideration. Especially, during the pandemic that trait was demonstrated on multiple occasions. The campus and lobby now looks like a prison or fortified police station. I would NEVER send my children to this school again. Unfortunately, we were late into our high school years before it really became a problem and apparent. There are caring and hard working individuals at this school, but they are rare and in the minority. We can’t wait to get away from this school and never look back. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Absolutely awful school that literally kills your child's ambition to learn. My child was reprimanded for wanting to take home a science book on planets that was "above his grade level". They refused to let him take the book out of the library. My child was bored and severely depressed, constantly feeling like everything he did was wrong. My child liked his teacher but the principal is just awful. Doesn't care what parents say or want for their children and it's her way only. Academically my child learned literally NOTHING and his teachers were still teaching ABC's by the END of the school year. Absolutely unacceptable. My child was also bullied a lot but the principal was more concerned with reprimanding my child than correcting the situation.

One of my memorable and valued middle schools I've been to. Out of all schools (I have moved a lot and so have been to many schools throughout my life) I have ever been to, Las Colinas might just be one of the best. I have made some friends, which have very knitted and well-read personalities and wisdom. Though my experience was not full, for I have been there for only 2 of my middle school years, it was nice. The educational quality is pretty good, teachers can be funny or interesting if you have respect and get to know them. I do wish to get to know my history teacher a little better during 7th grade.
