Triton High School Reviews

 
Dispite good ratings from students i found this school to be a mess. The school is ran very poorly .. It is ran by students not the adults. If a teacher doesnt like you then there goes your whole year for that class. If you have any problems with other students and anything happens & you have to go to the office .. Well lets just say its a waste of time they wont do anything. Bullying in this school is out of control and nothing is ever done about it . After moving to another state i see now that the acedemics at triton are horrible. They just push students on , even if they are failing instead of taking the time to help them . If your difrent in any way at this school you will have a horrible year.

I am a senior at TRHS this year and I've loved every minute of it. I disagree with what the former student said about how the only way you surived Triton was if you had a 3.0 GPA. There is an entire program set in place for students with learning disabilities and mental issues. I understand you went there about 15 years ago but come on, TRHS is awesome. The environment is SAFE! and welcoming and the teachers are awesome. Triton was the best experience of my life.

As a former student and a pre-service teacher, I have my opinions that lead both ways. I had the best four years of my life. It was an environment where I was able to form close bonds with both fellow students and faculty. On the other hand, my problem with the school is some of the faculty. They are wonderful people, but I feel that there should be more frequent and surprising classroom visits by the 'higher ups'.I had a few classes where the teacher would give us answers to tests and quizzes without making sure we understood the material. This is hurting me on my journey through life even though it was 'cool' at the time.

I too attended Triton. I thought that it was a wonderful school. The teachers and staff there prepared us for college and for the working world. As a co-op student I was able to work part of the day. This experience helped me get into the college of my choice.

I attended THRS about 10 years ago, and still know many people who's family members are currently attending. Since TRHS, I have gone on to teach college classes and realize that TRHS was not the worst public school education, but I regret not transferring to a private school. Triton does not provide a 'safe place' for children to learn. Moreover, if the student is academic student (3.0 or higher) OK, they do not provide the learning supports for students with learning disabilities. Thankfully, the universities I attended for my undergraduate and graduate work had the supports and I was able to overcome the disabilities. Regardless, the four years I lost at TRHS did cause some damage. Additionally, the school did not put the proper resources into those students who they arbitrarily decided they would not 'succeed' in life or in college. The authoritarian rule also does not coincide with learning theories.
