This was the best school in the world, I totally agree with you Fulton county.
3 3/21/2020
The teachers at TRMS are very uncommitted. Fulton County administration can do much better to appoint teachers who are willing to be dedicated and committed to teaching the students. Some teachers are very inconsistent with what they teach vs what they grade and in terms of their own attendance in school. The quality of teaching is low and the students have had to fend for themselves. My kid had a tough time even though he was a straight-A student.
