Very diverse school. Lot of learning opportunities. The school lunch is not great, but it is edible. I would like to see more communication between staff and students, students aren't always aware of big school events.

TC Roberson is an amazing high school. The faculty and staff are great! I have had wonderful teachers all throughout my 4 years of high school. Anytime, I have needed to ask questions or get help with something, counselors and staff are always willing to go over and beyond to get answers and help. I have developed not only great relationships with my peers but also the teachers. Friday night football games are the hype of the school! I have made some wonderful and special memories to take with me on my journey through life.

I mostly love the fine arts program, here at T.C. Roberson High. I'm actually included in one of the programs , in Orchestra and I can actually say that was the best class I've ever had, all of my high school life. I also love the Mathematics, and I'm also in the Mu Theta Alpha Club at this school. All I can say is that I've never been more relieved and call myself a Ram Alumni when I Graduate. In 2024.
