Senior: I quite enjoyed my experience at Apollo-Ridge. While Apollo is a smaller school, it allows for more one-on-one learning with teachers. If you have an issue with a student or can't figure out a problem, you can always walk up to the teacher and ask for help. Even as your high school career continues through the ranks, your old teachers still remember you and will ask you how you are doing in the halls. Teachers also tend to notice when you are absent and ask you if you are okay once you return. Overall, the teachers are caring and important role modals to the students.... Read 59 reviews

Senior: I am currently a senior at Leechburg Area High School. Overall, my experience here has been good. This is the first year for a soccer team and I decided to join at the last minute. The coaches have been welcoming and are helping my team and I build the skills we need to grow as a team. I have played baseball in high school as well. This is a very small school which suits me well. I like the smaller size classes and how well the teachers get to know their students. There seems to be more one-on-one in this district than in the bigger schools my cousins go to. One thing I would like to see change is college readiness. I think more could be done to help us prepare for life after high school rather than putting so much emphasis on testing.... Read 31 reviews

Senior: The school overall has incredible students & staff! I personally have never felt more at home with the peers in a school! If it was during school or after with volleyball, everyone has a positive outlook and works together. Graduation is definitely going to be a bittersweet moment because I have made so incredible friends that I consider family now throughout all my years of high school.... Read 70 reviews

Senior: Armstrong Junior-Senior High School is new and beautiful. I Love the athletic fields and the opportunity for many sports. Our facilities in the school are modern and pop with blue and orange colors. We have two gyms and a large theatre. There are opportunities for many diverse clubs and extracurricular activities. The wings for music, chorus and band, and skilled shops are well designed. Our cafeterias both have entrances from the main lobby, making them convenient from all school areas. We have a broad faculty, including athletic trainers, coaches, nursing staff, security guards, and custodians. Our school is equipped with metal detectors and cameras in all areas, including the parking lots. I feel safe when I'm at school.... Read 37 reviews

Parent: Although I just my daughter's teacher, some of the other staff is lacking in their communion skills. I have called the school four times to speak with a certain staff member regarding and incident where my daughter was punched by a male student. This staff member never returned my calls, even after us placing calls and leaving messages for over a week. My daughter is 6 years old and should not be being attacked by another student. There was another incident that the staff was not able to relay any answers about. If incidents continue I will be pulling my daughter from this school.... Read 3 reviews
