And it's a very fine high school. It's as good as a lot of private schools. That's just very hard for some on here to wrap their head around.



yup. South LA folks here can't fathom a public high school being great due to their demographics and poor public schools.

I went to LSU, I'm not from TX (live here now), but I don't get the penis envy shown by LA towards TX. It's juvenile and pathetic.

Y'all are all really overstating how good of a school Allen is. Sure, it's good, but it's not even in the Top 5 Public Schools in Dallas. Southlake, TAG, Plano West, Coppell, and Highland Park are all much better than Allen. Even the McKinney schools and the other Plano's are better. When you count in the top privates like Hockaday, Jesuit, Ursuline, Cistercian, St. Mark's, and Greenhill, all of which are on the same level or higher than the top 5 public schools, you realize that Allen isn't that great of a school in comparison to the other many schools in Dallas. I know several families who moved out of Allen's school district once their children started approaching high school age because of the immense size of it.
