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.

As a current senior this school is overall one of the best in the area there's a lot of learning opportunities and some seriously amazing teachers but I do have issues with some of the students I don't feel bullying was taken very seriously and whoever would be the bully could easily say they didn't do it and they could brush it off. I also feel the music and art program aren't recognized as much as they should be even though a lot of the students excel and become amazing at what they do I feel this school focuses to much on funding sports rather than the arts which tend to win more awards and titles than the sports and I would really like to see a shift in that where both sides are equally as appreciated.

Trenton High School is fantastic and has great teachers who really care for their students. I always felt like I could ask my teachers anything and they taught classes well. There is a lack of technology education that I missed and would like to see more of for the future generations.

It has been a good experience so far. The only bad thing is that there is 0 classes for what I want to major in (architecture). But other than that the spends a lot of money on offering a wide range of classes but not as much on the technology. The teacher are great, but the social life is toxic.
