Pierce High School Reviews
Rating 3.46 out of 5 39 reviews
I love the community that our school has built. All the students and teachers are very close, it's not just some random school, we're all like family. The teachers and staff are amazing, they reach out to students and they do their absolute best to try and help us succeed. One thing that I do wish would change is the amount of short term teachers our school goes through. Most new teachers work at this school and only stay for a year or two if they are not fired. We have had some amazing teachers come through our school but they are almost never long term. Other than that, I would say that our school really strives for each and every one of us to succeed.
Pierce High School is a small school in Arbuckle, California with a student population of about 450 students. Pierce has an average class size of about 25 students which makes it very easy for students to make connections with teachers. With a welcoming environment, it's very easy to become involved and make the most of your high school experience. It also has a great variety of agriculture classes that are very useful for anyone considering a career in Ag.
The school needs more foreign language classes available since it only offers Spanish when more than half the school is hispanic. :/ There also needs to be more field trip opportunities where kids don't have to pay out of pocket to get a good experience. I also think there should be more art based classes and an actual library. Other than that, the community is nice and small and its pretty fun.
