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.

Pitman High School has equipped me with to have the success and pride I have today. The teachers truly care about their students, while being great in their educational field. I have enjoyed growing up in the Pitman school system as I can truly say I am ready to graduate and take on college.

This school wasn't anything special. It was kind of slow paced and even the honors courses could've been more stimulating. It is not too advanced and gives a lower hand to all of the students anticipating furthering their education at a competitive university.

I mostly liked Pitman High School, and have made many a fond memory there. The staff does a great job at promoting a productive, engaging, and all-inclusive environment for all students no matter what the grade level. My only gripe is that there could have been much more engaging events for students than available at the time that I attended.

Students do not perform well on standardized tests. Ask yourself this. How can a homogeneous town like Pitman which is la...

Lovely small school where personalized attention makes all the difference. It's a community school where everyone knows each other. The small size allows students to get to know their teachers, administrators, and bond with classmates. Kids walk and bike to school. We are very happy to not be at a l...

This is one of the worst high schools around. Horrible teachers, administration, curriculum and students - switched mine to GCIT.
