It was a pretty good school with good opportunities for students to get college ready by offering colleges classes(dual credit) free act test and also offered pathways to where you can work all 4 years in a pathway to reach a capstone and be able to work for a company by year 4 (free training).

I didn't like the way that admin dealt with issues like bullying, etc. My education was impacted by covid so I don't feel as though my quality of learning was amazing, but I do think there are some great teachers there. Truman isn't a horrible option for public school but I wouldn't recommend it if you have access to a private school.

It's a good school, but the teachers could be improved. They aren't paid well so they have worse quality.

On top of that they...

Your only allowed 5 passes per week and that’s it I watched a kid...

From the halls of Truman, you'll hear children crying from their bodies being contorted and their bones being crushed. Nobody can move throughout the hallways without slow walkers, yelling people, and a stupidly congested T. The school used to be a middle school. It's not meant for all of these peop...
