Palm Springs High School

We are thinking of having our son attend PSHS in 2 years (he's now a 7th grader) & are interested in hearing more about the school climate, academics, teacher-student ratio, test scores, gifted & talented programming, AP classes, pros, cons, band, sports. Basically, anything you'd like to write about. Thanks, P.S. We rated this school average only because we do not much about it.

Excuse you, but there were some rotten students from James Workman, too. Not most of them were from Raymond Cree.

It is necessary to make a statement about the previous comment. Not ALL the students make these claims. Furthermore, "english" is spelled with a capital E, the last time I read this. Mr. Daucher teaches English to freshman. It is a FACT that there were students in his class who were not well-behaved. Frankly speaking, they were rotten and received better treatment than they deserved. Mr. Daucher put up with a lot from some of these students. Mr. Daucher is well-organized, polished, and professional. Most of the good students went to James Workman; the rotten ones were from Raymond Cree.

Great school awesome academics, however there is one bad apple that ruins the whole reputation of the school. Jeffrey Daucher, he teaches english at the school and is one of the most unprofessional teachers I have dealt with, my friends and family that have children in his class also agree. He wasnt teaching here last year. All the students claim he sits in class and talks the whole time about his personal life. something needs to be done otherwise its a really great school.

THE best music program in a high school in riverside county. Excellent arts program- without them the school would be average.

Not only am i going to brag about Palm Springs High School because it is the high school that i attend, but even if I want to another high school, I would still be able to notice what an amazing school it is. Being the ASB president, I have come to know the school backwards and forwards and it has only allowed me to love it more. PSHS has amazing programs, school spirit, a wonderful and safe campus and a great staff. They push us to excel in academics and that has only made everyone better. I am proud everyday to say that I am a Palm Springs High School student.

The athletics are wonderful and the care and concern of the Guidance Counselors are all terrific especially Mr. Mathis.
