Learn More About TCS

The vision for the Tuscaloosa City Schools is to be a premier, innovative school system where each and every student graduates and is fully prepared for life and career success. 

From Our Community

Madison Dunn, Northridge senior

"I'm incredibly grateful to Northridge for offering so many opportunities to connect with others through clubs and to become more involved in the school community. And we have incredible teachers who are reliable, supportive and ready to help us with anything, and most importantly, preparing us for graduation."
 

Bobbie Gaillard, TCS bus driver

"The best part of my job is getting to interact with my students everyday, talking to them, helping them through their problems. It's been 28 years, and I'm not ready to give them up yet. I just love dealing with my children. I enjoy my little babies everyday. Once they get on my bus, they're mine. They're mine for a lifetime."
