Rating 3.91 out of 5 22 reviews
Portsmouth High School is above average academically. The classes are a good size so you can receive extra help if needed. The school spirit is high with an exceptional band and sports have top notch facilities. It’s a well kept school and the surrounding neighborhoods are nice and very safe. It’s a small island community where everyone knows everyone. The beaches are beautiful and Portsmouth High School is rated the highest in Aquidneck Island. I really enjoyed my 4 years at this school and loved participating in the band traveling to many events and parades. They have also made advancements in the technology department to keep up with current technologies. At the present time, they are renovating the school auditorium with a state of the art sound system and brand new seating chairs. All this through the donations of many of the parents and residents of Portsmouth and Aquidneck Island. I would recommend this school to everyone who wants a great edit for their children.
The academics at Portsmouth High are very strong, especially in English and the Arts. However, electives are being cut, so there are not as many choices for classes, and many AP classes are being filled with unqualified students because the honors classes have been cut. However, the teachers are very supportive and excellent in their respective fields. I have never been so supported in any other school system. The student life there is very cliquey, but once you become integrated into something for find a friend, they usually last for a long time. Sports at the high school are major social events and are heavily emphasized; to neighboring schools, we are called “Sportsmouth”. Overall, the school is very good, but it is up to the student to succeed, find resources, and choose the correct classes according to their needs.
I love the portsmouth school district, I've been in their system since kindergarten and I'm about to graduate this June. Teachers are always there for help and if you need to talk to someone theres someone to listen
