The best thing I would say about Transmountain Early College High School is that teachers are ready to work with you especially if you need help on assignments or homework with the tutoring hours they offer. I would specifically say the math teachers, which is a good thing since a lot of people struggle in math. One thing I would change about this school is the safety. Anyone who is not a member of the school can just walk in, and that is not safe. The reason why is because we are not all in one building. Each portable is a different classroom outside, and collectively we form the school. However, I do love that since the class sizes are small, we form a sort of family because we are sharing the same rigorous work and environment. I know that personally I have made a lot more friends attending this school and it is truly awesome! I would hope that I stay friends with at least one or two of them since after this point, we'll go in our separate directions. I would say to attend here.
Transmountain Early College High School is a great place to go to high school as it brings new challenges to the students to become more independent, skillful, and prepared for life after high school. TMECHS staff encourage students to experience new things and try our best on academics, social life, and more in order for us to develop into intelligent young adults ready to pursue our dreams in the future. TMECHS is overall an amazing High School to attend, bringing the best out of their students.
I loved Transmountain Early College, or TMECHS on campus. Thanks to smaller class sizes, we had more detailed and closer relationships not only with our teachers but also with our classmates. A close-knit group of friends made the high school experience unforgettable. The campus has no buildings, and instead is made up of portables, so students were able to enjoy the outdoors all day, every day. There is a great deal of diversity, with students and teachers from all over the place and with very different backgrounds, sexual orientations, and ethnicities. Everyone is so open and compassionate and caring. Although sometimes academics can get a bit competitive, we are all friends in the end and encourage teamwork. Now I can go to university and really dive into the college experience knowing what to expect thanks to the dual enrollment at TMECHS.
