GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

At T.C Roberson Teachers are very involved and passionate about education students. I have had a very positive experience with most of the teachers working at the school. Administration is also very involved and handled a sexual harassment situation I was victim to very professionally and thoroughly.
