My daughter is in 7th grade and has been given the opportunity to take 2 High School Credit classes as a 7th grader. The school great support from the community, which in turn offers many incentives for the students. I believe the teachers at Driscoll are some of best in CCISD because they care about their students not just about grades but about the student's well being.

I am a 7th grader at Dricoll Middle School my school has very strict rules about everything, but at the same time Driscoll is a very nice school and its very fun their are always security on duty and they keep everything on watch because Driscoll is placed in bad area ,but we are still safe Driscoll has very fun activities we have a talent show ,fundraisers we also have tablet Tuesday where we use IPads to search for whatever project we are doing we also have sports you can do for example I am doing tennis and volleyball you also can take electives also for example I am talking concert orchestra and art our hallways are very wide so there is no problem getting from class to class but sometimes it can get a little crowded since Driscoll has about 820 students Driscoll may have some low ratings but once you go there for a year or two you will get used to it, my friends that go to different schools tell me that Driscoll is such a bad school and said that their teachers are teaching them right and our teachers are so lazy,but when our STAAR test results came out I proved them wrong! I had a higher test score than they did so I proved them wrong! so Driscoll is a really great school!!
