The teachers that I have had so far have been great, but they could use extra work in the fields of keeping their own business apart from work, the students I wish could be more involved, in particular with student council and games and school-related activities as well.

Tornillo High School isn't really big in bullying, the majority of students get along. Those who don't get along don't talk to each other and hardly cause any problems. If there ever is a problem our principal makes sure to address it.
