Both of my children graduated from North Hills, were admitted to highly ranked universities and are excelling because they were prepared. Often times you read where parents complain about the rigor of the curriculum and that their students grades dropped while attending North Hills, quite simply it isn't for everyone. It is a college prep school and does an outstanding job of preparing the kids for the next level. Look elsewhere if this isn't what you want for your child. Close Quote

This school is the worst school in history of schools. If you want to go to a good high school, go to Jack E. Singley, Coppell High School or Plano High Schools instead! The ranking is all wrong. Smart students who frequently used to get A's, get B's now (but like high B's)! It's outrageously terrible! Close Quote
