I have had four children go thru the Pine Hill public school system and can say with complete confidences that they all recived a first rate education. The teachers are very in tune with their students and truly care about how well they are doing in class. The children in the schools are for the most part great kids. At the high school you would find it difficult to find a child thats not involved in a sport or club, the children really seem to love their school. My children were involved in the music program which is top rate, they have an award winning choir and band. I truly can't say enough about the schools in this town it has been an all around wonderful experience for my family.
A great high school for the music and arts program. Unlike the music and art programs, the athletics program is, and probably always was, horrid. It needs more support from parents and other students. Overbrook is a better place to make lasting friendships rather then get a great education. The curriculum that the school district uses seems to be behind, compared to what other, higher educational, schools use. The teacher aid and the classiness of the school are also other concerns. Over all, its not the best high school to attend.
This school district charges a lot more in taxes that other ones but offer very little course offerings. They also lack in tutorial assistance .
The music and arts in the school are amaizing. They always seem to be ranking very high when competing and very often haveing a total victory. But the sports department, in most areas, is lacking. There is a very small student populous so the teams are small and have a hard time against the other much larger schools.
music and arts programs arent horrid, but everything else is. Theres always saftey concearns. Lots of issues and is just a really bad school.
This score is very concerning. Our parents need to see these scores. I know it surprised me. I know this school has been threw changes and it will take time for things to get better, but our kids education can not suffer because of these changes. I am sure the staff does their best, but we need to see if we can do better... For our kids sake and their futures!
Great music program. Now that it is not a regional school, I have high hopes that it will continue to improve in test scores and will become a desirable school district. Unfortunately because of some bad decisions while be managed as a regional school, they are strapped for cash.
Many changes have taken place during the break up of the old school district, most are improvements and we are getting better each year! Still need more parental involvement.
