Teacher involvement could be better. Many teachers are slow to communicate with students and parents, and many students report teachers having a very lackluster approach to interacting with their daily teachings.

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...
