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.

The best part of my experiences at Trigg County high, was the high quality found in the teachers. In each of my classes I had a teacher who was competent and willing to help. Of course, like any school, there were problems with student behavior and things such as phone policy. All in all, the experience was positive.

The overall experience in high school has been good I have made a lot of friends and got involved in a lot of clubs. one of the things i would like to see change is the teachers be more on the same page and for leadership to take student opinion into account more instead of just choosing what they think is right

During my experience at Trigg County, I have had some of the most memorable times of my life. I have had many fun times playing sports and being engaged in numerous club activities at school. Some things that didn't go so well would be my lack of time management. There would be so many things to do and I wouldn't use my time wisely even though I still got certain things done. A thing I would like to see changed is certain policies regarding sports faculty.

There is a lack of enthusiasm for learning in general throughout the school among the teachers. Most days, the students sit around on their phones and get about 10 minutes of work done in each class.

My school serves the exact same lunch menu every two weeks. Not only is is distasteful, but the portions served do not meet up with the required portions according to the National School Lunch Program. Elementary age children get the same portions as do the high school students. The students in high...
