I attended PHS in the late eighties. Even though I'm fond of the memories, the education that I received was not very good. I used to find myself using the excuse, "I went to Palmetto High," as an reason for my lack of knowledge in the real world. Oddly enough, people understood what I was talking about. I hope that things are better now for the children that are attending PHS.

I go to palmetto as a 2013 student i think that to school is a great place for your child to learn how to mingle with other races and such and also most of the staff are caring and supportive people.

I'm currently attending Palmetto High i'm a Sophmore and as a Freshmen I let my grades slip but the guidance counselors here are great they will listen to you and help you do and get better grades and they will personally walk up to your class and tell you cool opportunity's on how to get your credits and getting a higher GPA for example palmetto high offers an after school program after school called 21st century where students can recover credits that they need if they failed a class also the sports here are great go tigers!

I attended Palmetto High School for my 9th, 10th, and half of my 11th grade year. Plametto High School has been my favorite school by far. Palmetto has great teachers and great sport teams. The school will keep you very involved. The Team Success Organization made students want to at least get a 3.0. The only downfall about the school is the guidence counselors. I would very often go to my guidence counselor for advice with college, and I can not say she helped me once. Overall, besides the guidence office I believe that any child who wants to be involved and have a good, memorable high school life should attend PHS!
