I currently am a student in the Welding lab and i have to say this school has been the most fun of my high school career. If you are motivated you get up to i think 16 welding certifications and you can take college classes AND get an associates degree while in high school. I highly recommend. - 10/04/2024

My daughter found herself there. That one instructor that one teacher that just took the time and believed in her pushed her challenged her. Mr. Donough set her up for success..

Being a 1989 Graduate of TRCC, I cannot express enough gratitude to Mr. Ramey with the Engineering Dept, and TRCC to prepare me for a further career of 20 years working for the Dept. of the Navy as a Nuclear Engineer working with the most impressive naval Carriers and Submarines at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, WA. I always tell people around here that a school such as TRCC would be incredible for supporting industry here with the Navy and Boeing! I see TRCC has evolved with technology to stay a top facility and I would recommend to any interested students in that area! - 2/27/2018
