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.

I have really enjoyed being enrolled in a small school like Templeton. The people are great, the food is good and the overall campus life with friends is really fun. I have enjoyed various activities like the nursery landscape team and the high school basketball team. Overall great experience.

Just like any school, there are some wonderful teachers in every department. I do not know a lot about the drama department. I would say compared to the schools around that Templeton High School gives a very good education which has definitely prepared for me college.

I liked the educational opportunities. A lot of electives were offered in several subject areas such as welding, agriculture, art, drama, and STEM. There are also a lot of clubs and extracurricular activities as well as sports. A disappointment was that there is no Templeton chapter of the National Honor Society. We have amazing teachers who really want to see students succed.

The administration is the typical lazy, online shopping and gossiping crew. I know they dont make much money, but they could cut half of them and not be missed. The Principal is an ex cop and works at half speed as well. Too bad, as it is a great community and deserves better.

Almost everyone at this school is rude. The teachers won't let us use the bathrooms regularly (and the only 2 bathrooms available always have lines going out the door. Most students have to hold their bladders for 2+ hours before relieving themselves). The student environment is terrible and there i...
