This is no reflection on the educational process however, we attended the graduation ceremony for…read moreCedar Hill High School on Friday, May 30, 2025. Outside of my grandson graduating, it was the worst experience of a graduation I'd ever been to. Here's an abbreviated list: 1. Tickets were given to attend, seats were all reserved, some people sat on the floor seating while some parents as my daughter and son-n-law sat up high away from the stage, in the nose-bleed section. 2. Only 7 initial tickets were given then an extra 4 more. (Mind you, this was told 3 weeks before graduation while family and loved ones had already booked flights, hotel rooms, used vacation time etc. that could not be changed) To get additional tickets, you had to be at the box office at the location in Mansfield, Texas at 8 a.m. and graduation started at 10 a.m., once we got there at 7:15 a.m. to get tickets, we were told the box office wouldn't open till 9:a.m. Fortunately they did open just before 8 for a short period of time however some lady was trying to encourage us all to leave and come back, we said NO we will wait. 3. We brought a Big Face picture of our graduate to hold up so he'd know where we were (even tho we were all scattered all over the arena thanks to assigned seating), they turned us around before we got to the gate saying we could not have those because "it was a distraction". 4. They were selling gifts outside the arena BUT you couldn't take them inside. 5. We had a money necklace for him to put on afterwards and they said NO to that as well. 6. This arena has about 3 to 4 flights of stairs, my husband and I went to get on the elevator, and they had a person guarding the elevator saying it was for handicap only everyone else walk the stairs. 7. Our seats were directly in front of the bar railing blocking the stage in the nose-bleed area. 8. There were NO programs, nothing with our grandchild's name on it. 9. I was told by other family members the online link didn't work so they couldn't see the graduation. 10. One of the ticket ladies showing where the seats were was as if she was a warden in a prison. My family did a yard graduation in 2020 for another grandson who graduated from DeSoto and it was beautiful. As I stated, the only thing good about this Cedar Hill graduation experience was my grandson graduating but trust the home style 2020 graduation we did for my other grandson and his friends was EPIC. Oh, by the way, upon trying to secure additional tickets before traveling, I personally contacted every school board member who was listed with their email address of the CHISD asking about tickets but not a single one of them responded to me in any way. THANK YOU LORD, HE MADE IT OUT. Cedar Hill, get organized, get a clue, get some clarification and above all get professionals to assist yal going forward.

The building is too small and overcrowded. I've had classes with over 20 students and ones with only ten students. If you are thinking about enrolling your child in this school, go to trinity valley instead. While I am fortunate enough to have the option of changing schools, I am at the point in my education where I have built up so many friends that it would be a waste to start over. The funding for this school is a joke. Two years ago there was an electrical fire. The visual art department is severely underfunded and undersupplied. The choir students are the golden children, and are at the top of the pecking order. Every classroom on the top floor has stains in the ceiling tiles from leaks in the roof. The bathrooms are terrible. Take into account the fundraisers every year that make around 50k for the school, and you question where the money goes. The 25-26 school year was a rollercoaster for the staff. It began with the new art teacher getting fired for looking up girls skirts when they would grab supplies from the high shelves. Then the tech theater teacher was fired for ignoring the needs of neurodivergent students, as well as reports of him being creepy around the girls. Long term subs were found for both of them. However, two weeks before the end of school, when the teachers re-signed their contracts, several were told they wouldn't be able to come back next year due to budget issues. While complaining to one of my affected teachers, she alluded to the idea that the superintendent got a raise, despite these "budget issues". In my opinion this was scummy of admin, as the affected teachers wouldn't be able to claim all unemployment benefits as they weren't technically fired. The bullying among the elementary, middle school, and freshman students has gotten terrible. Nothing is done by teachers. There are no anti-bullying programs. The counselors are only there for dual credit classes and scheduling. High schoolers are under an insane amount of pressure. We are all heavily encouraged to enroll in dual credit courses, and even if you don't, your friends are in them, and you start to think you aren't smart enough compared to them. I personally know a girl who cries when her grades are under 95. One of the only positives about this school is the teachers. Almost all of the teachers are amazing and kind individuals. While a good chunk aren't that great at actually teaching, they are all so kind and supportive. If they weren't there, I probably would have come to school sobbing every morning. Many of the issues this year were not addressed by the new principal. Not to mention we had no vice principal the last half of the second semester. TLDR: this school is severely underfunded, teachers aren't paid enough to care, it will ruin your child's mental health. You have to buy uniforms then pay to dress out. While it's certainly better than some schools, just look for a better one. At this point in time, FWAFA isn't worth it.

Both of our daughters had a great year, one in kindergarten and one in Pre-K. The teachers were kind, patient, caring, and had such a special influence on the kids. You can truly see how much they love and encourage each child. One thing I really loved was how well they paid attention to each child's strengths and areas where they needed support. The progress reports and updates were always timely and helpful, and it was amazing to see how much growth happened throughout the year. Communication with the teachers and staff was also wonderful. Anytime I had a question, I always received a response quickly, usually in less than an hour, which meant so much as a parent. We also loved the principal, teachers, and staff. From the classroom to carpool, everyone was always so welcoming and cheerful. They greeted the kids with big smiles and truly treated them like their own. Our girls grew so much this year, both academically and personally, and we will always be thankful for the love, support, and positive impact ORLS had on our family. We highly recommend this sweet school community!
