The best part of Tallmadge school system is the academics provided. They have teachers available to help in every subject, and are getting students college ready. The worst part is that there isn't much diversity present, and the student body is very culturally limited. I want to see more changes in protocol against illegal behaviors such as vaping or non-illegal behaviors such as bullying.

As an LGBTQ+ student I have been called a slur or discriminated against because of my orientation by students in this school and the faculty does nothing about it. I believe that there should be some kind of repercussion for these students that are often involved in sports and positions of power in the student council.

It is a great school system. Teachers are willing to help students anytime they need. Administration is fair as well.
