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.

Facileties at school definetly need work. I also feel that we could use more funding for clubs and fieldtrips rather than the majority spent on sports. But there is also a lack of funding in it of its self.

Overall it hasn't been terrible, but I belive there should be more diversity in classes offered, and more support from staff

Everyone seems to have some good friends, but we need to improve discipline and a sense of school pride. There is not much a of sense of togetherness. We have groups such as FCA that are good, but sports teams are mostly selfish athletes and "everyone else". There is not much leadership among coaches, players or students.

I am a former student of TCHS and now a college student. From my experience I can say TCHS did nothing to help me prepare for the next level. With the exception of Mrs. Armstrong's class, I never took a single note a TCHS. I was in no way prepared to succeed at the university level. I graduated some...
