Small classes help the learning environment. All classes are hands on. We are given a laptop and hot spot for learning.

My freshmen year in Tornillo High School was a success , i was top 6 in my class rank. i didn't join sports because my favorite sport and the one i have always played is soccer and unfortunately Tornillo High School did not have the sport. I kept being in the top ten in my sophomore year, i learned many new things in Tornillo High School and my teachers helped me so much so my GPA keep being higher. In my Junior Year, i kept having good grades and good attendance and my senior year i had everything ready to graduate. The only thing i would really change about Tornillo High School is the fact they do not have soccer and hopefully later in the future they have it for the next generations.
