The only negative is that there isn't a lot of diversity, but that is changing as people continually move in.

I liked that I could have a good relationship with all of my teachers. I would like to see more money and time put into sports because there is a lot of potential in the athletes at the school.

I have been a student at Tell City Jr. Sr. High School for six years now. I have always had good experiences here.

I will be sad to leave but this school will always have an impact on me.
