After experiencing first hand how it's like to go there, I personally wouldn't let my future children go there.

The best part about school is the available clubs and activities and the option of work-study and even independent study to catch people up and to be able to have a job and go to school at the same time. I would like to see better food and I want the administration to be informative about stuff that's happening before it happens mainly safety issues.

Tahlequah High School is a good school, but it needs help. The community of Tahlequah does little to support its home town high school. I think more funding and priority into the school could take it a lot farther into having a better environment and doing a better job at preparing students for college.
