Good school, some outstanding teachers but the Administration lacks the desire to provide students with a positive and motivating environment.
I'm now a senior at Thunderridge and have thoroughly enjoyed my four years here. Most of the teachers here are fantastic and give you the feeling that they really care about your success. I have to disagree with one persons review of the school which said that there aren't enough resources for college explorations because there are a ton. They have multiple college visits every week which you can sign up for and you can always visit Mrs. Kelling who is there just to help with college. I'm also tired of hearing people complain that athletes get special treatment. I've played sports every year here and haven't recieved anymore help with anything than my friends who don't play sports so I'd like to know where to sign up to get this extra special athlete treatment. My only complaint is that some of the admins are clearly on a power trip.
I just graduated from ThunderRidge and my first 2 years there were great. I played sports and had lots of friends. However, I found that after I quit playing sports, I kind of became a nobody. There was no more interacting with coaches and so I was kind of ignored by most of my peers and teachers because I didn't play anymore and so I didn't get the recognition. I slipped under the radar basically and suffered. They did not give me any information I needed for my college explorations. Every other student was signed up for a junior and senior meeting, I never got one. Great school and academics, not much discipline and too much athletics and not enough attention to the students in band and who spend their time getting 4.0. To get real attention and help, you need to be an athlete. Also, lack of discipline of students.
