  • Hey, I'm a former student at Tomlin. I went from 6th thru 7th grade, and now I'm at private school. At tomlin, there is a LOT of bad stuff that goes around, that's why I don't go there anymore, my parents pulled me out. there was a lot of stuff i hated, but overall i miss it SO much. the teachers are almost ALL horrible but there's people there i miss so much i hate it at private school I miss tomlin and the people there, i would go back any day.
