Tulare Technical Preparatory High School

I rate this school a 9 out of 10

Tulare City School District has given me less faith and pride in my community than I would ever have imagined possible prior to having school-aged children. While asking teachers throughout the district what they can be sure of concerning Tulare City Schools, each one has stated that it is a game of politics. I have come to believe them. The district administrators seem to be driven by money and power. Teachers are overworked and resources scarce as a result. Higher salaries for teachers supplement sufficient working conditions, leaving my children to pay the ultimate price. How is this leveling the playing field? My children are losing out on an education which builds 'confidence' and 'creativity' because teachers feel they need to cut corners in order to get through the day. Education serves as the foundation and building blocks of the community. I'm not so sure what our community is building anymore.

My son is special needs and keeps getting bullied and assaulted by a normal child and the school wont do anything about it it keeps happening so I am have to pull him out. I have told the district and no help either maybe my lawyer can do more then me it's really sad.

So far I haven't had a bad experience with this school, my oldest loves it there and we have been lucky enough that she has had amazing teachers that help her succeed.

All of my three kids have gone to this school. We all love it and miss it very much. I love all of he Wilson teachers and their attention to all of their kids at school. I would have loved for my kids to stay there but I tried another school in Tulare and I did not like it at all. They are in Visalia now but I they are coming back. See you next school year Wilson. God Bless you all the time!!!!

My kids have been attending Cypress for the last couple of years. They love every aspect of this school, from the great kids to the administration. Mr Bates has made a wonderful impact on this school and it shows in how happy the kids and teachers are.

I love this school great staff the front office is always so patient and helpful very nice not rude at all my children love there teachers they are always excited of going to school the principle is very nice as well if have any type of situation she will right way fix it. I been in this school since 2004 taking my brothers to pleasant elementary and now my children. All in all I'm very pleased with this school.
