What is the best High School available to FT Hood on post personnel?

2019-04-30T19:48:07-04:00

I will be moving to FT Hood and living on post. As far as I can see the only two High Schools available for on post personnel are Killeen HS and Shoemaker HS. Does anyone have experience with which HS is academically better?

Here's another site on it...is never known of it till just now, obviously, the distance is perhaps daunting, it's also depend if there's be of any interest, though it certainly seems superb at first glance, you know?

Marine Military Academy - Wikipedia

The Marine Military Academy is a private college preparatory academy located in Harlingen, Texas, offering a college preparatory curriculum for boys in grades 7–12 plus one year of post-graduate study. The school was founded in 1965. Its traditions and ideals are inspired by the United States Marine Corps, but the school is not affiliated with the United States Marine Corps except through its Junior ROTC program.

I'd obviously be curious if you thought it might be of any possible use...also, purely as a thohght, when is been in high school, I did a voc we program.for two yrs half a day in my 3rd and 4th yrs, Fox we highschools, esp.in STEM fields, can often be little knkwn, little availed of, and quite valuable, e.g., In aviation, clinical.fields, electronics, or other serious industrial areas...just a thohght, honest...that MAN school seems to have an extremely serious curriculum, from what I can tell looking at it, I'd expect there are also YouTube videos you might also find For high schools in the area....

The maritime academies like this are all.excellent schools, I'd there's be any inclination to.prep.for this one...just another thohght, of course, my next younger brother was USMMA Kings Point, I commissioned him, I quite frequently kick myself I never applied to.SUNY Maritime Colleege in NY, I very nearly did, I've known many grads of it, I've quite envied them, honest....

Unfortunately, all of the high schools in Killeen are subpar. My son was going to Shoemaker but I pulled him out and he's now home schooled. Check out k12. Best decision I ever made.

A lot of soldiers and officers live in the Temple/Belton arwa. Belton is a smaller town but has the biggest high school in the area. Very highly recommend Belton high school or New Tech High school in Belton are very good schools.
