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.

During my time at Talladega High School, my teachers helped me in many ways. They gave me useful advice and tools that made learning easier and helped me do better in school. I am thankful for the support they showed me, and it made a big difference in my time there. However, the part I didn't enjoy as much was the lunch, which could have been a lot better.

Talladega High School is good if you want to be involved in athletics. But other than that the academics are a shame and there is not much to do in terms of fine arts.

I am band member, so there is always someone I know to hang out with for support or fun. If you are a loner or don't do anything, of course you'rs going to picked on...

This is a horrible school. The saftey of your kids are a low priority for these people. Guard shcack posted outside is there to protect students from outsiders but who is protecting the good students who want to learn from the other students. Bully is tolerated and as in my case they choose to prote...
