Canyon Hills was utter chaos with leadership students speaking to the parents with their 'Like, and this is like...' personalities. The extra activities that Townsend has are a HUGE plus, something Canyon Hills lacks. My daughter is now a 3.8 GPA, involved with the Christian Club and Art Club. She has accomplished far more than I could've ever given this school credit for. The teachers are great! This school has taken a huge turn-around since students I knew attended a few yrs. before Read less

I think this school is fun! Even though the principal isn't very friendly, the teachers are very much into their students' achievement.

Townsend Junior High has the best teachers I have ever had. People like Mr. Callaci, Mr. Demartino, and Mrs. Faucher are wonderful teachers. The only downside of this school are the underacheiving kids that do nothing but ruin others.

Townsend is a fun place to learn, depending on the teachers that the student has. Some teachers are really cool, and make the educational environment more fun. Like last year, Mr. Bates had us do activities for both Math and History to help us learn better. I would say that the students academics depends

Yes there were problems last year on the school bus, since I took the bus myself, and ours was the only real problem. But it's improved. This year the class schedule system I say has gone down in the dumps. Last year was much better. But make the best of these experiences Read less
