- Pretty cool school. They're getting new things and upgrading the school. Plus giving rewards to those who are good and making good grades which TOTALLY ROCKS. Not liking some of the substitutes though, don't have enough patience and don't give or explain the work correctly. Gonna miss Sam Houston and my friends. Good luck to current and new students!
