I go to Tintic High School. I am a Sophmore there. I think it is a great school. The school I went to first was too much for me and all of the kids were mean. So my mom found out about this school, and asked me if I wanted to go there. I was welcomed with open arms. I seriously love this school. :D

Favortism of certain students among faculty is a problem at Tintic High School. At least the principal has acknowledged this and practices fare and equal treatment of all students and faculty reguardless.

I go to school here at Tintic High and it is great not having as many poeple in your class such to most school having 30 or 40 kids in a class we only have 5 to 15 kids in a class. It is great because a teacher can help each kid individually. I love the Tintic High School.

I went to school here at Tintic and now my children are attending school here as well. It has improved 110% since my days. The teachers are more interested in teaching the children, they are caring and excited to teach. With it being smaller there isn't enough teachers to have more challenging classes that is needed for some students. My children enjoy the small class size and the attention that they can get from their teachers. The staff is also attentive to the childrens needs. The new Superintendent is wonderful and very well educated in all areas. He is very well spoken and has done our schools a lot of good. He is fair and interested in all children and their families.

This school has a small enough enrollment that your kids get a great education. The teachers are still interesting and excited about helping your kids learn. Your kids don't get 'lost' in the crowd. The teachers are attentative to thier needs and are really great about focusing on them before they have a serious problem. The staff is well educated and informed on current and past issues. It is a fun school, my kids are happy there.
