Lake Travis High School
This school is to big, to caught up in sports and does not pay attention to the students that do not play ball. To many rich kids in fancy cars driving fast and dressing like a bunch of hookers. Drug infested and the hispanics are taking over and all have attitudes towards the white kids. Big problems at this school. Can't wait to move!
