I am a student here and I am about to graduate. Most of the teachers and counselors dont really care about you, there are very few amazing teachers who work very hard to make sure every student understands the material. The same teachers also make sure every student gets the help they need whether it be school-related or not. The students here are all trouble-makers and dont care about school. Mostly all the kids here are very entitled which makes it hard to even make friends. Most of us seniors are lost because we are not being given any important information about our future, the requirements to graduate, get scholarships, and even with fafsa.

I am very disappointed in the education my daughter has recieved. I don't know if they pride themselves in having super seniors year after year. I know if she would attended a school on the east valley.

Most teachers don't appear to know the subject they are teaching. They need to learn alternate teaching methods; not everyone learns the same.

They have a lack of urgency a child is struggling. They wait until the its to late to offer any help.

They appear to lack interest in helping people that have learning disabilities.b

Leadership won't get rid of ineffective teachers who break laws.

Basically segregation. They're on one side we're on the other

District is worried more about it's image to the public than their corrupted teachers.

My son went to Tolleson all four years and graduated last year (2012). I thought it was an outstanding school. The principal really cares about the students and the students respect him. The baseball program is outstanding and very competitive.

Could be a better school at academics and sports. Sports aren't that competitive at this school like most schools up North in Arizona.

University High School on the Tolleson campus is taking kids places. My son is a graduate and I would have never sent him anywhere else. Students from this school are going all over the US. Students from University High are being accepted by prestigious schools such as American University, Georgetown, George Washington University, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, Dartmouth, USC, and many others. This school is definitely on the right track!
