Salem High School

We moved from New Jersey last September. The school is great and my daughter loves it. The teachers and staff are very nice. Great attention from everyone.

We just moved from Missouri in the summer. We came in to register for our daughter, and the staff was very helpful! My daughter even took two summer classes in order to fulfill the requirement for her graduation, and she came through okay. I appreciated all of this smooth transition that my daughter got from the staff and teachers. We moved many times, and this time, Salem HS staff gave us the best of help. Thank you for all the good start you gave us!

The staff works so hard to give our students the opportunity to achieve whatever goals they have. It's a great facility with great staff and great students.

Four of my children graduated from Salem High (1987-2004). I have also done substitute teaching in all three high schools. I believe PCCS schools offer great educational opportunities. Two of my kids were able to use AP's and dual enrollment to pre-empt one semester of college. Another did some college prep, but concentrated on PCEP's excellent art classes. Another just wanted to graduate--but received enough academics to attend college several years later. Bottom line---PCEP offers a socially-diverse learning community rich in opportunity for students who are able to take advantage of it.

As a parent of 3 Salem grads, I think the park offers the most assimilation to college as you will find. Each student has the opportunity to excel, to find things that excite them, both during and after school. My kids all played sports and the single biggest benefit that carried into college was their time management skills. Practice and games took up time, but the academic performance was king...it taught them well. The park is an opportunity, not a sentence.

I hate when people complain about how big the school is. The park provides more opportunity then most high schoolers could ever dream of. I was very shy and I came from an 8th grade graduating class of 23 kids and I had no problem adjusting. These high schools are great and we are lucky to be attending it. The academics are great as long as you are motivated. Some of the teachers are young but I believe they are more in touch with our generation and can help us as much as many seasoned teachers. The extracurriculars are astounding, if you can't find something you like then you have no personality.

What is Salem High School it Joins two other High Schools on one huge plot of land. Salem, Canton and Plymouth Highschool considered a ' Campus' quality of learning. When really its a Mass of Students who are for the most part losing a battle ..of being within Thousands of their peers. Yes, they do graduate. Do they excel within their 'person' within ' their desires, dreams' I can't see how it is possible. I do not see 'true' education here within PCCS. Too Many Students, so many just pushed through .

Salem high school is huge. Comming from a tiny middle school it was very overwhelming especially being a freshman this year. I can imagine that this highschool experience will be helpful for me as i enter college but as for the teachers, they arent very good. the math department needs a lot of work so i know that math will not take me far in life for the lack of teaching skills the teachers have. Other for the 3 schools, and traveling from school to school in the cold, bad teachers, drugs&alcohol, and to much homework i like school. It seems like highschool may be a fun experience for my social life and im looking foward to graduating from Salem High School in 2008! Go Rocks.

I love this school, due to the fact that it is part of a larger entity. Not only is this a large high school, it is included in the Educational park with two other high schools creating more opportunities than any other high school in the nation, I wouldnt go to any other school.
