TCHS has some positives but on balance I was very disappointed. We took our child out of the school for a combination of reasons.

Furthermore the school is extremely cliquish and students compete with each other in clothes, jewelry, cars, etc. The athletic program is the real emphasis of the school and athletes are treated differently (academic and behavior problems often overlooked) than the mainstream students.

Recent problems include racism in which the student was barely punished. Its street nickname is 'the Olympic Village'. People who play sports have more value than acadmeics.
