Rating 4 out of 5 47 reviews
The high school is a very nice building. The teachers are very nice and very good at their job. There are a lot of different types of people. The school district seems to be mostly Caucasian but seems to be diversifying more and more as time goes on. My little brother is three years younger and his grade seems to be more diverse. There are some very well-off people in the district but there are also a decent amount of less fortunate people. I would like to see academics treated as important or more important than athletics. Athletics are very important to the school district and they get a lot of praise from the administration. The school is very adamant about preventing bullying. Since kindergarten, I have always remembered learning about the fill-a-bucket method. Now the school uses the RAMS way method. Respectful, accountable, motivated, and safe. This is how the school functions on the daily.
The things that I liked about Pine-Richland include the wide range of clubs they sponsor, the diverse classes they provide, and the teachers. There is almost a club for everyone at Pine-Richland, whether they want to play a sport, play an instrument, or provide more knowledge for students about a social justice issue. The classes they also offer allow students to explore what they are good at and what they may wanna do in the future. Personally, I believe the teachers have made my PR experience much better, as I was able to talk to them about any issues I was going through, and they listened and understood. On the other hand, the Pine-Richland Administration does not always make good decisions, that benefit the families of PR. The guidance officers also do not always satisfy a student's needs, whether it's to help with class transfers, finding colleges, or finding a solution for bullying. Overall, I believe Pine-Richland provided a good high-school experience for me.
Pine Richland School District has offered many opportunities to become involved in school. As a high school senior, I have learned how to be more flexible, accountable, and disciplined in my academics and in sports. There have been many opportunities in high school to discover new and interesting classes other than the core classes required. I personally have taken video production classes, an economics class, and a global cuisine class to name a few. Another important part of my life has been dedicated to playing soccer since the age of five. I continued to play through high school as well as on a year round club team. Soccer has taught me many life lessons, for example how to be a team player, to strategize, and to set and achieve goals. Overall, my high school career has been one of greatness!
