There are some good teachers. They are very involved with their students. I see these teachers at the elementary level. It is very difficult to find any passion in the teachers at the high school. The teachers allow an environment that is not conducive to learning, they permit bullying and harassment by not addressing it, and they let the worksheets and books do their job. There are very few sports and even fewer electives.
The after school and summer program of Tiger Time has been great for my kids. It allows them extra tutoring if they need it and more socializing with kids.
Overall, I would not recommend taking your children to Temple. There are other, better schools in the region.

My elementary student never had homework, but my middle schooler was frequently overloaded. She didn't seem to understand or know what she was doing or why. I had to help reteach her concepts. My student claims that the teachers assigned busy packets to have grades each week, but it wasn't what they were learning in class.

Students seem to be able to do and behave how they like without any real consequence.

The few times I had issues, I was able to reach administration easily. I feel like they effectively handled the situations my students were in.

My student was involved with several bullying incidents. The students involved were either not punished or punished lightly. The bullying continued.

No band, no soccer, no choir, no after school program's, no after school tutoring, no gifted and talented programs, no pep club, no types of show and tell or arts programs, pitiful special education program, no plays or programs put on by students, no music classes for elementary students, there are only 150 kids or less from Pre-k thru 12th grade total instead of 250 they say they have and this school offers nothing but the bare minimum to get by. Why is it that all of the graduating seniors the last few years that go on to college must enroll in remedial English and math classes?

Bullying and harrassment is a major problem in both the high school and elementary and the teachers are the biggest offenders. Teachers in high school post facebook messages talking trash about the kids and their parents. There has been an entire generation of children ruined by these people.
