- Reviewed by Former Student on June 30, 2010
- Rating:
(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I went to CYFAIR and the entire time I was there did not learn anything. Most of what I know I leaned on my own.
Would I want my child to go here.
The answer is no. I have a High School Diploma from CYfair high School it is not worth the paper it was written on.
My last year was 1980
