There are a lot of things to love about Pioneer. Our student body is so large that it is impossible for you to not find at least one extracurricular activity that you like. There are endless amounts of clubs, and organizations to be a part of. On the other hand, I had a hard time finding my "people" at such a large school. It felt like I was drowning in a sea of opportunities. There simply wasn't enough time in the day to connect with my 500 classmates and teachers. But I do think that being overwhelmed with opportunities is better than having none at all! I go to travel to China through school, as well as perform in musicals , and be a part of a student-led a cappella group!
What I like about Pioneer High School is the competitiveness of many students. Pioneer High School is filled with very smart students, which leads to a very competitive environment. Having a competitive environment is good because it causes students to strive to improve themselves every day. Not only are academics strong, but extracurriculars are also strong as well. Many sports teams are very competitive and the music programs at Pioneer are elite. Many students at Pioneer are friendly and create a sense of homeliness in the school. What I would like to see change is some of the teaching methods. There are many great teachers who devote lots of time and energy into helping students conceptualize and understand material, however there are some teachers who aren't very active. Some other teachers are extremely strict with grading, causing many students to become stressed with that class. All in all, Pioneer High School is a very good school in preparing its students for college.
Throughout my four years at Pioneer, I have grown into the person I am today in many aspects. I was able to flourish in my passions thanks to the staff and friends I have met during my time. I was a part of school's choir, Track and Cross-Country team, Anime club, and a part of a district wide enrichment program called Rising Scholars. Each of these school and extra-curricular activities helped me develop skills and learn lessons I use today. Within the classrooms, my teachers were one of the main reasons I pursued STEM in college. All of my teachers were supportive for me within their respective classes and outside as well. Every teacher I have had left a major impact on my life and I am fortunate to have had them. Outside of the opportunities from the staff and resources given through clubs and programs, Pioneer is a solid school. If there was a fault or weak point, it would be the food provided via lunch.
