GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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 was not very involved in my high school since I did an out of school sport. But I did enjoy being a part of the schools advanced choir class (concert choir). I have only liked a hand full of the teachers I have had, but the ones I liked really shaped and prepared me for my future.

Overall, my experience at TBHS has been a great one. Every teacher has treated me with respect and as a competent person capable of succeeding in life. The course offerings are of great variety to help guide you to your career goals. I am involved in football, wrestling, and volleyball. Every coach I have encountered has a deep passion for the sport they coach and the success of their athletes.

The school welcomes you quicky, though the layout can definitely throw you off at first. Some teachers are much better than others, but you learn how to tell character.
