"I think the current administration: Robert Dean and E Lewis have done the most damage to Worthing High School. The administration is never visible, never available for parents and students, never out in the front helping monitor students for bus duty, not friendly to parents, and speak very abrubtly to you when you have questions."

"My son graudated in 2003. While at Worthing, he learned a lot. Mr. Gambrel, his algebra instructor was hard, firm and fair. He challenged my son. He will graudate with high honors in Electrical Engineering with a minor in math. When he left Worhting he was trained in several computer programs that have propelled him in the computer world. Summer of 2005, he won the first annual Young Devloper Award. This was based on knowledged acquired while at Worthing. No place is perfect. Not Bellaire or Lamar included. Schools are what you make of them. You can go to Harvard and pass with 'D's. Does that make you smarter than an 'A' student at TSU? Students from Worthing are doing well. We even have a student in the NFL at this time. Check it out for yourself - #59, Brian Iwuh."

"Worthing High school has quite a few UIL programs that are not really spoken of such as the debate team and the theater arts department. Both of these groups have placed in UIL competitions. If more emphasis is placed on what a school has to offer to better our students quality of life, then, our students will get more out of school."

"If you don't have to,don't go! Just about everybody knows (Administrative staff) nothing or does nothing. I have a child there and I have talked to several people who during their senior year and they have told me that they have learned nothing and they graduate in the top 5% of their class. Get out while you can. Why do you think enrollment has gone down?"
