    "I am a 2010 graduate of Sam Houston High School. From my experiences going there, it's an okay school as long as you stay out of trouble. A lot of the students there were trashy and ghetto, and there were fights all the time (sometimes there were up to three fights during one lunch period). There's a huge teen pregnancy problem, and most of the students come from low-income families. Still, if you are a current student, or have a child who's currently attending, then I would strongly recommend becoming involved with as many extracurricular activities as possible. There are a great many students who are hard-working, apt academically, and who manage to represent the school well."

    "There's never a bad school but there's always great students. Teachers at Sam Houston HS do their best to prepare us for our future, is always up to the students to take that knowledge shared to us. I'm from Class of '04, honored graduate and all I have to say about Sam Houston is that is the best school I could have gone to.Thank's to all my teachers & I miss the halls at Sam Houston where there are no strangers. Go Sam!"

    "That's not exactly true what the previous reviewer said about taking exams when they returned from Christmas. The final exams are actually about 2 weeks after the kids return from Christmas."

    "My son is special ed qualified and in general pop. because he's not "skills class" qualified. DO NOT expect any of the teachers to read their IEP and BIP no matter how many ARD committee meetings you go to & decide what accommodations to have. We have 2 years of wasted Spanish in which he was 1 of 3 kids that DID'NT already SPEAK SPANISH fluently. The teacher DID NOT teach at their level resulting in F's both years. The 2nd year I requested his principal put him in the "ESL" class for his foreign language credit and was told "but he already speaks English" That is no different than these kids receiving a free foreign lanquage credit for Spanish, They also have a class called "Native Spanish" They have 2 classes, what a joke. The lack of interest in helping kids with special needs shows me these teachers are there for nothing more than collecting a paycheck. This school rating should be 0 out of 10. Before Xmas instead of taking exams, they had "movie week" & when they return they will take exams. Does that make sense?"

    "To the previous person who posted.... Sam Houston High School is in Arlington, Texas - which is between Dallas and Fort Worth in North Texas. We are about 250 miles north of Houston, Texas."
