- I have a daughter that graduated from Caprock in 2006 (who is currenlty a Senior in college), a Senior, and a Sophomore who are attending Caprock now. If a student has the desire to do well and shows an effort, Caprock faculty backs them 110%!! I appreciate the support they have shown my kids. I credit my kids success to the teachers
and God Bless Coach Culwell!!

- I wouldnt trade this school for anything. At Caprock, there arent any "clicks" or certain groups like all other high schools. Caprock is one big family with every kind of person you can meet. No one judges or hates you just because of who you are. Its the best school to be at.
