Palo Duro high school is one of the best high in Amarillo Texas are whole school is full with different cultures and different languages. We have amazing teachers that try to help us succeed in the future and to get us ready for the adult life as soon as we graduate. We have amazing principal, teachers, and counselor that are always there for us if we need any help. I don't have any bad experience at Palo Duro high school.
3/4/2024
My overall experience at Palo Duro High School has been a roller coaster. The teachers are great for the most part, I've learned efficiently in classes, but I don't have the best experience with administration. I don't get into any trouble, but something happened to me on campus that the administrators let slide and I feel like I never got my justice. The school itself isn't the worst place to spend 4 years to learn, but the way they handle things could be a lot better.
2/6/2024
I would say that Palo Duro highschool is diverse. The worst part would be how some teachers can be rude and disrespectful. I would like to see more so resect given to students.

I use to attend this school and the staff and students made me love it there i hate I had to leave
10/22/2014
All four of my kids went to Palo Duro and loved it. The teachers have no problem getting in contact with parents on there grades. The teachers would stay on top of my kids if they were falling behind. They also helped them so much with the college preparations.
