Princeton High School Reviews
Rating 3.52 out of 5 330 reviews
While Princeton offers a good mix of strong academics, a campus, excellent staff, and student life, there is still room for improvement in each category
The advanced placement department is spread too thin with three different "college-level" programs. The International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma wastes taxpayer funds but is kept due to its marketability. The school invests too much into these overlapping programs while the school bathrooms are unusable, and the ESL and CP departments are overcrowded with students who aren't given enough support.
The staff is incredible, but too often they are forced to work long hours. Additionally, many non-advanced studies teachers don't put in the effort to teach, which harms the well-being of the entire school.
Student life is amazing, but subpar sports teams are given too much money while student mental health services are pushed aside. Students create the best events and fundraisers, but too often, they aren't given the support they need.

Princeton is a great school. Serving many local communities and neighborhoods, it is one of the most diverse schools in Ohio. Additionally, teachers seem like they actually care about their job. Personally, I've built good friendships with my former and current teachers and talk to them on a daily basis. While not the biggest high school in the Cincinnati area, it definitely is unique in its history and the backgrounds of the student body. AP, IB, and CCP classes allow students to challenge themselves with a college-level curriculum. Princeton's IB diploma program is one of the oldest in Ohio. Various clubs such as Key Club and even an E-Sports team give students a myriad of opportunities at Princeton. Music plays an integral role as well, with different levels of groups of both Band and Orchestra.
Princeton High School is the perfect place to send your child. Not only is the school perfect for preparing you for college and career, we have amazing programs as well. Amazing music program with the support of our music boosters. Being part of the choral program was one of the best times being part of this school, helping me find my love in singing. It was hard during COVID which push a lot of things back for us students, including me. We were able to overcome it and go back to normal. I will say for this school, they need to work on welcoming new students and giving them guidance after transferring here. Overall, I think Princeton is quite an great school.
