Porter Ridge High School has given me the opportunity to meet and connect with interesting, diverse students. The teachers are helpful and want to see the students thrive by offering tutoring and eagerly answering questions.
There is a large variety of classes for students to choose from graphic design to culinary arts. We are also given a way to expand our experience in these subjects by joining one of the may clubs offered at Porter Ridge.
School spirit is kept high with spirit weeks and sporting events. The administration does a excellent job of providing exciting activities for students.
I am only a sophomore at Porter Ridge so I am looking forward to spending the rest of my high school career here!

I absolutely love PRHS. I was very involved and I wish more people got involved like I did because the overall experience was great! I always brag and tell everyone I would never change where I went to school. I'm hoping that one day when my baby brother grows up he will get to attend PRHS and have the most fun like I did. I wouldn't change a thing! I was a cheerleader... I loved all sports, the student section was great, the food was honestly REALLY GOOD. I had bonded with so many teachers. PRHS changed my world.
I've only been attending Porter Ridge briefly. I transferred my junior year from a private Christian school. One of the main things I love, is the diversity on campus. The teachers are willing to help always, and really take their time if you need it. We have a phenomenal band and fine arts program. I enjoy listening to the band and choir, as well as attending the performances put on by our theater program. At the football games, there is tremendous school spirit filling up the stands. There are many clubs to choose from at Porter Ridge, several including service work. I feel very safe here at this school with all the precautions they have down and the officers and security guards. Overall, Porter Ridge is such a great school here in Union County and I would recommend it to anyone!
