Now it good because you can join…read morewhatever sport or club you want also if you are a good student the teachers will be nice too you. But everything has flaws and the flaws of this school is that the nurse does not care if you are hurt she will usually say "I'm on my lunch break so go away" or if you have thrown up she will say "he is not throwing up right now why should I help" and I'm speaking of this by personal experience because a kid I'm my class threw up so the teacher asked me to walk him down to the nurses office and when I got there I told her what was wrong and she said "he is not throwing up right now" but with a attitude and I don't like when people give me attitude so I gave her attitude back and she immediately started to help the kid.

Teachers and staff change constantly, and it feels like no one really knows what's going on. My experience was incredibly frustrating, and I would not recommend this school to anyone looking for a stable or supportive learning environment. They talk a good game during tours and orientations, but once you're in -- it's a different story. Beware.

Woodrow works wonders. It serves a population which goes from the children of doctors, lawyers and…read moreother post-grad professionals to those whose parents didn't finish school in Mexico. This mix is unique, you won't find it at other schools. The social skills and friendships formed are as impressive as the academics. Speaking of that, The Dallas Morning News recently published that Woodrow is #1 in academic gains in Dallas. The school was redesigned three years ago into four college prep academies which offer AP and IB (International Baccalaureate). Woodrow and its feeder, J. L. Long Middle School, are the only two IB schools in Dallas. Transfers for those out of the attendance zone are available with applications starting in January. Unlike DISD magnets, Woodrow offers the full range of athletic and extracurricular activities. It is the quintessential American high school experience. The Lakewood area is a bit like a small town and many generations have attended the school resulting in many traditions and an extensive alumni network. My only gripe would be that the principal, going into his third year, is a little to strict on spirit and pep rallies. He does attend most sporting events, however. Overall, it's a great school and a true oasis of education in DISD.

This particular location of Painting with a Twist is awesome--they get my highest recommendation…read moremainly because of our instructor! I signed up to do one of the larger paintings--a 3 hour class with Kerrie. The class was smaller than the usual PWT classes, I guess because it's more expensive and a longer time commitment. I loved it. There were 3 attendees, so we all got a lot of individual attention, time to mix our paint and get the colors right and it almost felt like a private class. I loved it, so much better than the larger classes which often feel rushed especially at the end. Kerrie was very laid back, cool and funny. She even gave us an extra hour on our paintings. I asked her for some extra paint colors and she gladly let me use whatever colors I wanted, which made a huge difference in my finished painting. I would love for PWT to offer more of the large canvas paintings--I have mine proudly displayed on my wall and it looks beautiful. I think having the extra time really helped because I didn't make mistakes or take short cuts. The Monet Lillies really takes 4 hours in my opinion. 3 hours would not have been enough. If you are serious and hard-core or are a perfectionist like me, I recommend a few tips: 1) print out your own color copy of the painting sample, so that you can refer to it throughout the class. If you fall behind, you can always refer to the photocopy 2) bring baby wipes. If you are messy like me, you can quickly wipe off your hands without having to go hunt down some paper towels and 3) you might consider bringing a couple of tubes of your own paint if you are really picky about colors. Like I would've liked a few fluorescent colors to accent my painting, because I wanted to do a Warhol-ish version of the Lillies, but I should've maybe brought my own fluorescent paint for accenting.
