I feel that my school district is "Excellent" because of all of the opportunities that are given to all of the students rich or poor. Some of these opportunities consist of certifications in Excel, Microsoft, PowerPoint etc. Then there are intro and certifications in food prep. Finally the reason why I think the my school district is "Excellent" is because of the teachers that help you on your journey to college and more.

I loved my time at Pleasant Valley and wish I could be here more. My favorite part of my experience at Pleasant Valley has to have been getting to work with my physics teacher, Mr. Spangenberg. He always came to class full of excitement and made my day that much better. The school is also beautifully laid out, with new facilities constantly being added and upgraded. The new commons area is a great place to get some work done during a study hall or get a head start on homework while waiting for your ride home.
I graduate from Pleasant Valley High School in 2012. I had a very good experience with the school district. I faced some heart issues during high school, I was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation recently but in high school they weren't sure what was causing my problems. Pleasant Valley worked with me on missing school and the counselors were very good with guiding me so that I could still graduate on time. The school nurse was especially helpful to me and always there for me if I ever had any problems.
