Assistant principal Anthony Chan: “The nice part about being a staff alumni is that we liked our experience or we have parts of our experiences we want to share. Though things have changed in terms of the look, the same values are still there; we still care about the students and want them to have a good experience and have fun.”

Chemistry teacher Tommy Tan:  “The teacher I replaced, Mr. Salazar, was a really big inspiration to me. He was a big goofball and when I was in his class he showed me that you can be yourself while teaching and don’t have to be a stereotypical teacher. I really enjoyed my experience here and wanted to make students feel there is someone for them to talk to.”

Geometry teacher and golf coach Barry Bacon: “What I love about teaching is when I somehow get my students to buy into what we are doing and willing to try. I knew TC has always been an academically stronger school, so it gave me the balance of teaching good kids and also being competitive in the sports zone.”
