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.

There are some passionate teachers and administrators at Talladega High School however there are some that don't understand that they can't treat all students the same. Just because you have had a bad experience with a student and/or parent doesn't mean you have to be defensive and/or rude to all. Many parents understand that the student has to learn to handle their academic affairs but they will still assist that seems to be pushed to the side by some.

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...
