Going from one teacher to seven was definitely difficult, but the teachers and students at Temple made me feel right at home. I may have lost some friends, but I also made some new ones. Temple Intermediate taught me how to open up to others and be comfortable around large crowds. Something I'd like Temple to improve is their preparation for our future (college/careers). Overall, Temple played a large part in who I am today.

Temple actually provides students with lots of chances for success and activities outside of school time. The students sometimes can be rude and disruptive towards teachers sometimes, but my personal experience in this school has been good. In this school, if you try, it is quite easy to get good gr...

The press conference held at Temple yesterday by the Superintendent was a slap in the face to all students who go to Temple and their parents. To say, as the superintendent did, that Temple students were rude and disrespectful and to say they didn't have the right to give their opinions at a board m...
