Principal gives big speeches about the school being a 'family', although, dealing with the counselors, VP, and coaching staff, dealt with nothing other than a hard, unwelcome hand from them.

I'm about to begin my Senior year at TVHS and am pleased to report that these past 3 years have been outstanding.

I went to this school for most of my freshman year, and while the school may not look grand go within the walls and you may have a different opinion. While it may have a large student body, most of the teachers give needed attention. One may feel lost in the school though with the amount of students.
