Peters Township High School Reviews
Rating 3.73 out of 5 237 reviews
Peters Township High School is okay, but there are many things I would love to see change around there. For one, I would love to have teachers that I actually enjoy seeing. Most of my teachers I either do not like in general or can not teach well (in my opinion). I would also like to see more acceptance and more teaching about acceptance. I know many mean people in my school, so having more awareness would be nice. Another thing is Peters favors sports, and brush theatre/singing/band/choir/music off to the side. Say what! I wish that would change. Lastly, having more activities and options would be cool
Great school for college preparation. Counselors are excellent. They guide students on a successful college path and through the entire process.
Academics include numerous AP, College High School (CHS) and honors classes. Teachers are dedicated to seeing the students succeed. Workload can be intense if you take numerous AP, CHS and honors classes.
On-line schooling during COVID-19 was good but there is room for improvement. Teachers could do more teaching videos especially for java and/or languages.
There is a wide variety of after school clubs/activities including forensics, computer, science, music, marching band, drama, environmental activists, photography, National Honors Society, etc. Boys and girls sports include basketball, golf, indoor track and field, lacrosse, soccer, swimming/diving, tennis, etc.
Students and staff are looking forward to a brand new comprehensive high school which is currently being built and should hopefully be ready by the beginning of 2021.
