i am a mother one of student in Daniel Pearl Magnet High school. it is an amazing school with great strong principal / school leadership and staff,great teachers,great education.
very good school with great teachers. The pricipal is amazing and knows every student on campus by name
I love my school! My math and science teachers are the best I have ever had. They are always there in the mornings available for tutoring or counseling if I need it. Sports are available, we share sports teams with the school we were once a part of, Birmingham. The staff and faculty are all friendly and very helpful and even the students treat each other kindly and with respect. We even had an anti-bully day where we came dressed in purple to stand up to online bullying and bullying abroad.
Teachers and principal are very dedicated to buid a strong school. It has been only a year since the school separated from Birmingham HS, and despite all the challenges that the staff had to face (underenrollment, displacing teachers, moving to new campus) they have accomplished a lot. Great environment! Teachers and prinipal build a very strong relationship with students and parents. The school's newspaper reflects life on campus and is a great opportunity for students interested in journalism. Because of the small size of the school the opportunities for AP classes and sports are limited and these are the main negative sides. However, the small size brings some warmth that you cannot feel at the big schools.
