Tomball High School Reviews

 
Obviously your new to the school. The drug problem wasn't that bad when I went there not oo long ago and actually that have police dogs that sniff the lockers between classes. If your worried about it follow students before and after school. Most Students there aren't going to bring it to school.

Administration is overly concerned with test scores to the point that it is detrimental to the overall education of the students. The teachers do a great job communicating with the parents as well as giving them opportunities for success. The athletics program is hindered by poor administrative support but manage to compete at a high level despite their circumstances. The cougar pride band program is exceptional and has much of the support from administration as well as parents. I am very pleased with the school as a whole but if I were to change anything, it would be to change priorities from TAKS scores to actual education.

The drug problem at this school goes unnoticed.

Tomball high school is overcrowded but the school is great.

I have personally attended THS and I think that our school is top quality. Our UIL programs are top notch and that the Tomball Cougar Pride Marching Band is extrodary. We have acheived UIL sweepsakes in Marching and Concert. Our two new directors have helped over and beyond. This program is highly recommed and the children learn responsablity and disapline. Also the Tomball FFA Chapter is fantastic. They are one of the highest awarded chapter in the state and this January, we raised over $300,000 at our project show and sale. The AP classes are extreamly helpful and the parents are very involved and I would recommend this school to any parent.

The overall quality of the school is good. The teachers are very good and there are a lot of fine students at the school. However, electives are limited. The only musical instrument program requires a student to be in the marching band. There is no symphony. There is a heavy emphasis on football and baseball, which has caused some other sports to be dropped. The fine arts program is good.

I enjoyed working there. I don't know a lot about the current administration. Parental involvement was fairly high, and most students seemed motivated.

1.5 yrs now at THS and I have found that the e-mail notification is very helpful. I receive 3 different e-mails each a different report. One is the grade, attendance and detailed assisgnment/missising assisgnment with grade. Teachers have been very responsive when I leave phone messages or a hand written note given to my child. We all like THS.

A huge percentage of students at tomball high school are involved in extracurricular programs. The staff strives to work in harmony to incorporate academics and extracurricular events. Students have the opportunity to excell in a number of different areas and there are many programs for them to access. Guidance counselors strive to place students in appropriately challenging classes and help students through difficult stages when they are overwhelmed by difficult courses. UIL and athletic coaches challenge students to be physically and mentally alert and sharp and to be the best they can at all times. The administrators support the teachers, recognizing teachers need to support students and administrators strive to keep teacher morale high.

The Tomball High School Band Program, it's bands administration, and the school's principal has been a huge disappointment. I cannot honestly recommend this high school with a clear conscious.

This school and the TISD administration has been a huge disappointment. The administrative staff is aware of these activities and has been for a very long time. The administration does not enforce discipline given or ensure the school's staff members follow through with commitments made to parents. The band program dramatically deteriorated while my child was in the program, so that it is at best now mediocre. The advanced placement algebra II class for 10th grade tested over material not reviewed and the teachers failed to contact parents even when a child was failing. It has therefore been given none of the advantages of a huge school, with all of the disadvantages. I would not recommend Tomball High School or any school within the TISD district.

Tomball has great academic programs, but is best recognized by its baseball team who is one of the top of the nation. THS has placed high in a variety of other sports and uil competitions. Parents are very involved and are very reliable.

We moved to this district from HEB, per the recommendations of that district and have been absolutely pleased with the school system. My youngest just graduated and had a very good, very educational and very well rounded time at Tomball High School. We are very happy to have had these experiences in the Tomball ISD.

THS has a great band program and directors, as well as dedicated Band Booster parents, who have helped me son have a wonderful band experience. The teachers have been compassionate, working tiredlessly with my son (who has missed a lot of school due to a chronic illness) and helped him to maintain honor roll. I appreciate the staff and faculty at THS.
