I would give the school a four star rating. Although the building is old, the teachers are good and they seem caring.
Alright, to the reviewers who have said the school is alright, you are not seeing what goes on there at all, as you are blinded by the fact that the teachers are only helping the students who excel in school. Those students who are not very skilled in school are being ignored and thrown aside. The teachers are only enthusiastic about those students who are already working hard and know the material. Unfortunately, they are not following through with their roles for helping students learn, which is why I will no longer be attending this high school after this coming school year. I plan to enroll in a different school, as I value my education too much to stay there.
As a student, I can say that TMHS has some ups. While it is very well-known that the classes are oversized, the building is falling apart, and the fees are increasing, going to TMHS is, if anything, helpful in terms of college admissions. To counter what one other reviewer said, my guidance counselor has been extremely helpful. Considering the number of forms and letters associated with applying to 10 schools, my guidance counselor made my work so much easier, completing things right away, and meeting with me whenever I showed up at his office, even without an appointment. A huge asset to TMHS is its teachers. The teachers are phenomenal. At least of my teachers, they are very intelligent, have their own flairs, and write great recommendations. For those concerned about college admissions, the biggest duties lie with the student, not the guidance counselors and teachers.
