School Reviews

I have two sons who are currently attending Robins. This school is a hidden gem in the TUSD school system. We transferred in from a private school and let me tell you the teachers, learning, and commitment are top-notch. Great teachers, better support from, more extra-curricular, kidco, etc. My boys hated school before coming to Robins, now they have said they love their teachers, staff, sports, arts, friends, and learning. It has changed their attitude and they love school. Being younger they should love school and now they do. Thank you Robins for all you have done to turn their attitude and love of learning around.
