GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

In my opinion, all of the electives are the best part of this school. The are very well funded and are tons of fun. The worst part would be the students behavior and the school spirit. I would like to see more pep rallies and incentives to raise school spirit.

Overall my experience at PMHS has been very well. I have met the most helpful staff members who helped me become ready and prepared for when I graduate. I do only wish that communication with proper dates of certain events were more accurate due to many dates of huge events being changed last minute which can be very frustrating.

Teachers are great, but administration is horrible.Don't reveal that you suffer from a mental illness because you will be looked down upon, and questioned. Especially by the principal Jeremy Richardson. You will stop being treated with respect. The stigma is very present at the school.

The teacher truly care about the students receiving an education, and are the most devoted teachers I've ever seen in getting knowledge into the thick skulls of their students.
