I enjoyed my experience at Preston. The school prepares you well for college. Our schedules have blocks every other day, which makes it easier to learn and keep up with the assignments. The teachers are usually nice, sometimes a little strict. The food can be a little expensive, as well as other things like tickets, club fees, etc. The sports here are decent. Overall, I recommend the school.

Preston has given me a second home. Here at Preston you will not only get the best education you will get the support to succeed. I have achieved first honors throughout the past 3 years with ease, all do to teacher availability. PSP program available to those who take their education seriously.

I think I had one of the most great high school experiences a person can have. There were so many clubs I wish I could have joined, I made great friends and wonderful teachers.

This school is not as great as it seems. For what it’s worth you’re better off sending your daughter to a public school where she she will have much better opportunities. Teachers don’t challenge students to reach their full potential.Very few teachers genuinely care about students. The only time th...

My daughter had a wonderful experience in Preston HS. It was challenging and completely prepared her for college, it truly is a preparatory school. Although we made many sacrifices, it was money well spent. The teachers and staff are mentors and really take an interest in the students, Which is evid...
