I am a graduate from 2017, and I have to say this school has grown in all branches throughout the years I attended the Palestine School District Schools. The teachers are well prepared and equipped to teach the students (if taking the upper-level courses such as Pre-AP, AP, or Dual Credit classes). I really loved Wildcat University because it allowed me to finish most, almost all, of my college core curriculum courses (graduating with 50+ hours). Taking college courses allowed me to transition fairly well during my first semester in college. Doing some extra-curricular activities will make high school enjoyable, especially the Drill-Team. There were some bad behaviors and girls became pregnant. I wish they emphasized health classes (such as sex-ed classes) and finding a way to deal with misbehaved kids besides exiling them from classes.Overall, there are some great opportunities at this school.

Leadership and staff work hard to meet a variety of academic and social needs of students as the complexity of learning increases. There is a great balance of academic and other activities to prepare students to become involved and active in their future school experiences and in the community.
