At this school there are many great teachers who challenge the students every day. They also provide help to any student who needs it. The principal stands by his rules and does not choose sides no matter what the situation is. They offer various oranizations for the students to get involved with.
I did not like going to this school at all. I didn't learn anything from my experience from going to this school. Sometimes it seemed as though the students knew more than the teachers did. The discipline there isn't the greatest either. But the only fun that I had there was doing extracurricular activities. That's where I learned the most. If you fail a class at the end of the 2nd Semester the school will put you in that same class for another year. Which I think is kind of bazzar.
I attended this school for four years and I graduated. I had a fairly good time, some of the teachers were good. Others felt like they were just thrown in there. Sadly there were absolutely NO art classes (to my sadness) and the music and fine arts were under funded. Too much of the schools funds was placed into the sports of the school instead of other parts.
This school has the potential of being a great school. They have wonderful teachers and supporting staff. The only true issues I have with the school is there isn't enough textbooks to assign to the kids so they can't bring them home to study, and the fine arts program isn't near good enough.
this school doesn't offer any classes that i would like to take to help my further career. i would like to be an art teacher and they don't an art class. some of the teachers are very rude, and the other students are very rude.
I have been going to TVHS for two years now. The only reason I stay in this school is because 1. I have to, 2. it's the only high school in the districst, and 3. the band is totally awesome. but other than that this school is totally horrible. This is one of the worst schools I've been to and I've been to 5 different schools in my whole 15 yrs of being. I will be glad that I'm moving away in abput a month.
