Overall I think that administration at Tarpon is on the uprise. I have really appreciated the amount of support the guidance counselors have been giving seniors and how much they have been helping with getting us prepared for college. My counselor has been emailing us a lot about scholarship opportunities and keeping us all in the loop, which has been very helpful.
