I was definitely able to experience a lot of good and fun things at Tigard High. I was able to benefit from great clubs, and music classes. The distribution of resources within the school is obviously very different. The less popular groups get a lot less money. There are a lot of good teachers and a good variety of classes that can be taken. The school culture is really set by a certain group of students who end up taking the "leadership" class and are always at the forefront of student body decisions. They are basically the most popular clique at the school. Mostly the culture is relaxed with no outward hostility between students. The admin does not listen to student reports, especially when the reports are made against popular or athletic students. The athletes are favored over all other students.
Tigard High is a very average school, which really is it's biggest asset. It did nothing spectacular, but for the most part it didn't do terribly. While there were a few misses with teachers, I think the teachers here are a big standout for the school overall. Maybe not the best academically in all cases, but the majority are pretty decent people. While the school has begun to shift towards trying to meet the needs of underrepresented students, it has neither done enough or done it in a way that was effective. While the student gov. is mostly elected by the students, it isn't diverse and doesn't reflect the students at the school.
I can honestly say that I enjoyed all four years at Tigard High School. This by no means, means that Tigard High School is perfect. I created most of my experience through relationships and student involvement. One thing that I think is so great about Tigard is the friendly staff as well as the endless opportunities for students. There are several teachers who are always willing to lend a helping hand as well as truly caring for their students. Tigard offers many clubs, sports, and career opportunities that can enhance students' lives as well as make their time in high school more enjoyable. Tigard has a strong student leadership program that celebrates diversity and differences as well as bridges the gap between students across the board.
