Plaquemine Senior High School

the school may seem like its trouble but we have fun there and the teachers aren't strict they try to help us in any way possible but let us know that e cant just play around and we have to get to business.

I started attending Plaquemine Hgih last year in 2007. Last year was great!. The principle was great. He was understanding to all of us. We actually had fun with him there. There were activities we were able to attend. There were fun things to do. The students even liked him. This year with Ms. Outlaw is totally different. She's rude, she doesn't care about the students, and she's to strict on us all. She's used to teaching middle schoolers. We are in highschool. It's time for us to learn to stand on our two feet and grow up. Yet she treats us like little children. She acts like we're babies and we need her to hold our hand all the way. She's not fit for a principle in my opinion. We have hardly any fun. It's like we go to military school. There are to many rules at that school. unreal!

I wouldn't say Plaquemine high school was a terrible school, but it's does need a few improvements. More activities should be provided for the students, and there are only a few teachers who show that they actually care about their students. The rules, i feel, are over the top. (Must have green jacket, belt, shirts tucked in, certain shoes, and certain color 'undershirts' and socks). Maybe they are trying to construct an orderly environment, but annoying the students over simple things will only make matters worst. It's enough we have to wear uniforms, but we can't show not even a little of our indivisuality.

PHS is a great school that has everything any other premier school would have to offer. With the excellent leadership of our new principal, Dr. Russell Plasczyk, I feel that before my brothers and sisters graduate, they will be able to experience a school that will be known nationally. Many people often criticize Plaquemine High for not offering a challenging enough curriculum, however, I have found this statement to be false. Students who wish to pursue some form of post-secondary education should enroll because the college-preparatory curriculum is very rigorous and challenging. I highly recommend PHS to any and every student.

I attended this school for all four years of my high school career, graduated in the top ten and am now in college. I am not blind to the probelms that the school had, but I must say that I enjoyed my experience there. I loved almost all of my teachers, and felt as if they cared about me as a person. I only wished that the school offered more electives--which I understand they now do, in the form of AP classes. I am majoring in education and I intend to go back to PHS and teach there. Hopefully, my school will continue to improve.

I think as for as an opportunity to get a good education, PHS has by the far the most resources of any school in our area including the Private Schools to acomplish that goal. But course I'm sure like 'all' schools in our area we have our problems. But it can be fixed and its not a hopeless situation like some people would lead you to beleive.

I am at student at Plaquemine High and I think that the school board is way out of hand. I mean at PHS you have to have a green jacket and if you don't they take it from you. You have to have your shirt tucked in or they will put you out of class! That is crazy! The best thing at Plaquemine High is the principle Mr. Newman. It would be nice every once in a while to have a casual day.
