There are good parts, bad parts, but the majority is made up of okay parts. So is the world, but charged with more 'Karen energy' which should be expected from any suburban area. The schools try to pride themselves on rating they received almost a decade ago and the reasons they haven't gotten more since becomes apparent once you try to communicate with the district. Unorganized, reactive rather than proactive, and greedy. Again, so is the world so don't be expecting more than that. One thing I will commend the school district for-amidst the pandemic, after petitions board meetings and many angry seniors, we were able to get our diplomas on schedule in a moderately safe drive-thru graduation. But, if that's your style, go check out your nearest suburb! I can almost guarantee that you will find carbon copies of the people, places, even experiences and won't miss a beat with Robert and Donna across the street.
Pickerington, Ohio has that small town feel that feels like home. There are many restaurants that range from high to low in cost. I enjoy that there is a plethora of restaurant options. The same goes for shopping. As Pickerington is a suburb of Columbus, nothing is ever too far away. As Pickerington continues to stay low in crime, and has two high schools, I look forward to raising my children here. Pickerington North and Pickerington Central are rated an 8 on the educational scale, which is excellent! It seems as though there are family-friendly events going on throughout the year. I am not into going out to experience the nightlife- but I’m sure it just as great as anything during the daytime! Also, Marcus Cinema is a great movie theatre that offers $5 Tuesday night movie tickets! (Even the dream lounge seats!)
I enjoy the education system in Pickerington, Ohio, they have prepared me for college more than I even realized. There were many things that I had learned in high school about college and the ways that college education differed from previous education that many other students did not know. I believe that this helped me be more prepared an dmore confident in my ability to succeed in my four years of college education. I also love the emphasis that they put on sports in our schools. Having such intense and well known sports teams allows the community to come together for friendly competition and support. Another benefit to Pickerington sports teams is the role models that older students are for the younger students throughout the community. Overall Pickerington is a community of inclusion and support for those living in and around the area.
