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.

I liked the class size and most of the teachers because they were passionate about what they were teaching and it was easy to learn from them. I would like to see the amount of graffiti and defacing of school property eliminated because it takes away from the beauty of the school.

As a former student of TCHS I feel I was cheated out of a good high school education. While it was sufficient to make it to the next level, I was never taught to work harder.
