GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My experience with New Braunfels high school has mostly been positive. Their programs for higher level academics is superior in my opinion, especially with the category of AP classes they have. The worst thing about this school would have to be the bathrooms, as they are always closed and it's impossible to find one that's open. Even if there is one open across the school, you might get in trouble because you're not using the bathroom in your hallway even though it's closed.
