My daughters started kindergarten there last fall. As a parent and volunteer at Tincher I was very pleased with what our family experienced. We look forward to continuing our childrens education there.

This is school is great, I can't be happier. Communication between teachers and parents is great, I always receive some kind of feedback on how my daugther is doin at school either verbal form her teacher beacuse I inquire about or via the in class work or homework that is sent home everyday. I have received calls from the principal to inform us of major family events taking place at school, he is friendly and always out in the school campus keeping an eye on the children.

I cannot recommend this school. The teachers lack in communication skills and the principal is cold. The afterschool program which was supposed to make sure our kids did their homework before activities sorely failed our child. I don't like this school and am looking to transfer my son out at the end of the year. A bit too late now, sad to say.

My daughter has been attending this school for 4 years now. Let me first say, that the first two years were wonderful but the last two, have been less than impressive. Test scores are going down and the classroom teaching in certain grades has been deplorable. STAR testing for 2006 was jaw droping at certain grade levels and frankly I have never felt like I have had to be a fulltime school teacher at home like I have the past two years. If they don't get it back into gear this year, I am sadly forced to transfer her out.

Tincher has a fantastic staff and great teachers and is all brought together by a principal who takes great strides in creating a warm, respectable and responsible school and surroundings. The many activities keep the parents involved and up to date. My daughter had her pick of schools for middle school and chose to stay at TIncher where she has been since grade K.

Tincher is an amazing school. I new it was a great school, but I didn't realize just how great until we moved away and attended a new school. We miss Tincher - the teachers, the staff, the students. When we talk about Tincher to our new friends, they can't believe it isn't a private school. Wish we were still there.

This is a quality public school. The principal, staff, and teachers are dedicated, caring, and very good at what they do. We are grateful for having found this school and for having all of our 3 children attend.
