Teachers are biased towards their favorites, discipline rules are not followed if your on the prefered list, students are unduly pushed toward quitting due to poor and biased discipline.
As a current student at Pierce County High School I am shocked at the medicore standards set by the school administrators.
This is my Senior year at Pierce County High School and I strongly discourage any parent from sending their child to be a student at this school. New rules are practiced almost every semester to the point where it's just mentally and physically exhausting trying to enforce these rules and follow them. The only upside is that the students are very friendly and accepting and so are most of our teachers.
PCHS is a great school. The Principle has done an excellent job maintaining a strong learning environment. Good discipline.
I love PCHS. My son attended WayxMS and talk about a horror story. I moved to Pierce Co. and transferred him and Praise God I did. He went from making C's & D's to A,B. The teachers are great. They listen and are willing to help no matter what the problem is. My son is now a junior at PCHS. And we are still pleased.Pierce Co. teachers keep up the Great Work...
Being a student of PCHS for 3 great years, I have nothing but respect for the staff and parents of this great community. I was in foster care in Pierce County and was treated with nothing but respect. I learned so much there not only in books and class but how to be great human being. God Bless the people in Blackshear Georgia.
I went to PCHS for all 4 years of high school. They have lost many awesome teachers since I graduated partly due to bad administration. The school system in general is trying to cut out the fine arts, and it's been many years since the school has had a choir. There is a severe lack of funding for the art program, and art classes are used as filler classes to put 'trouble' students. Unless you enrolled in advanced classes while I was there, the quality of education would be sketchy as it was mostly busy work. Also, the library is sadly lacking in fine literary material and is mostly a reference library. The non-reference material was often on a reading level below high school....very disappointing.
i dont personally want my child to be a student of PCHS. i attended the school for 3 yrs and truthfully all i can say is that some of the teachers are great and some are really bad. The test scores of PCHS is also low which means some of the teachers need to get to work.
I have attended Pierce County High School three years. I think this school is a wonderful school. Some teachers give you the attention you need to do well. The Administrative staff is great as well. They will do anything they can to help you. I would not attend any other school. I very much like Pierce County High School.
