I am a current student at Tecumseh High School, and I love it! I have been here for four years, I would not choose any other school to attend. The teachers care about each and every student, and they know most everyone's name. There are many different activities a student could attend. I, myself play volleyball and am an aide. I love this school and am proud to be a savage!

Overall a decent school. Too many student Teachers, and the local school board doesn't put enough money into extra activities such as football or basketball. They tend to spend more on board related problems. this school also has too many fundraisers. Which relates back to the problem of the school board spending practices. Also this school is getting to be a very large school (almost a 5A school with 2A or worse facilities)

Students that skip school tend to get caught, no tolerance for tobacco or drugs, no bullying. Most teacher's are good, but some classes tend to have student teachers in them, which make it harder for me to learn , but that is all I can think of. There is an open campus lunch and encore is available for students who need extra help.

About the tests


In 2008-2009 Oklahoma used the Oklahoma Core Curriculum Tests End-of-Instruction (OCCT EOI) exams to test students in high school in several subjects. The results for reading and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The OCCT EOI is a high school graduation requirement. The OCCT EOI exams are standards-based tests, which means they measure specific skills defined for each subject by the state of Oklahoma. The goal is for all students to score at or above the satisfactory level on the test.
