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.

During, my time at Tustin Highschool I have found that there are many improvements that need be implemented in order for the high school that I somewhat enjoy, to grow. For example, I believe that new teacher training and background checks need to be had because the teachers that I have had on my journey don't care whether you fail or pass. However, there are a select few that I believe truly care, like my English 4 teacher, Mr. Seals.

At Tustin High there are many ways to be involved in school, there are several clubs, sports, and activities made through asb. Our student body is very opening and won't judge you for how you display yourself. A big plus is that all of teachers are phenomenal and care about each one of their students.

Hands down, the best high school in TUSD. Tustin High has so many amazing and award winning programs, but I would like to give a shout out to Tustin's music program.

I went to Tustin High a few years ago, and my brother goes there now. It is actually a good school with many great opportunities for extra learning and getting ahead that aren't offered by Beckmann or Foothill. As for the person who rated one star stating how glad they were that their children go to...
