    T.C. Williams is a very large and incredibly diverse high school. It is the only one in the City of Alexandria...and it has its own movie - Remember the Titans! All of the school forms are written in English, Spanish, Arabic, and Amharic, showing where just some of the student body hails from. There are numerous learning communities within the school that cater to everything from international students who need help with English to those focused on STEM careers. It truly brings together children from every socioeconomic and ethnic class and is a unifying factor for the city.

    Overall, I have enjoyed my high school experience attending TC Williams high school. My favorite aspect of being a TC Titan was have so many courses readily available to me. The opportunities are endless! I truly appreciate the great programs provided to students at TC, especially since many school are not fortunate enough to have the same great courses available.
    I love TC Williams! TCW offers amazing classes that a lot of the schools in our district do not have like German, astronomy and art history. The teachers are great and always willing to help students after or before school. I am involved in three sports at TC; cross country, swim and tennis. I also love going to the football, basketball and lacrosse games. TCW is very diverse and has a lot of culture. We also have a lot of school spirit. #RememberTheTitans!
