Talladega High School

This is a horrible school. The saftey of your kids are a low priority for these people. Guard shcack posted outside is there to protect students from outsiders but who is protecting the good students who want to learn from the other students. Bully is tolerated and as in my case they choose to protect a 3rd year senior than a student who was possibly going to be their 2013 valedictorian. The principal wants to please everyone and doesnt stand for anything. The asst. vp is ignorant and I had to pull my studnet out for her own protection. A fellow student told me you had to be tough and street smart to attend this school. My child goes to school to learn, not to have to constantly defend herself.

I am a parent of a band student and I feel that THS has been great, especially these last couple of years. Many changes for the good. Our students have been showing true talent. It helps when a parent is involved. I am glad that my child chooses to stay at THS.

Talladega High School is truly a wonderful place for a child to learn to become an adult. There have been some changes lately like the new website and some new teachers and coaches that make me feel the we are really going to have a great year this year.

I'm a current student at Talladega High School where I am in the 12th grade. In my opinion they are more focussed on what we wear and discipline more than they are our education. Every parent tries to be involved but sometimes can't be there and that's understandable. I think there could be more extracurricular activities. I wish there could have been more before my last year, but certain activities never get approved. I think that Talladega is a good school, but the faculty and staff sometimes focus on things that are irrelevant and should be more concerned about our education. Hopefully things will get better in the future.

Parents, I urge you to reconsider sending your child to Talladega High School. There are more emphasis on who can be sent home or to in-school suspension then there are on academics. Our teachers seem to be very unhappy as we lose several at a time each year. My regret is keeping my children in this school system. I urge you to talk to other parents and do your own investigation before sending your children to Talladega High School.

I went to Talladega High School and loved it! It may not be the top rate school some people compare it to, but I enjoyed my time there. I was a cheerleader and an A student. I believe the reason some my find something negative in THS is because they are not envolved and do not care. Go Tigers!

I really like Talladega high school. I am in the 11th grade there and I do love the teachers. they would do anything for the students. They try to take time and explain everything. The one thing I do not like is the fact of going back to 7 periods. It is going to cut back on the student teacher one on one time. Thats is about the only thing I do not like.
