This school was overall just a mediocre experience, alright but mostly bad teachers, horrible administrators that act like you're wasting their time, and horrible bias in 99% of classrooms. The only good thing there is the food and some of the people you meet. Also if you're planning or even considering moving in the middle of the year DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT go to this school, they will not give you the credits for the classes you took unless you complete the ENTIRE year. Over all a 4/10 experience only reason it's not a 1 is because of the people you meet there and some of the teachers.

Piedmont classical high school administrators and principal are very involved in the school, though funny and cool to be around they will snap into discipline mode if needed. Overall the school gets your college ready and prepares the students for oncoming challenges in their life.
3.0 Senior

Piedmont Classical High school is not a very inclusive school. The school does not have much extra curricular activities and the teachers are not very knowledgeable regarding any issues such as college tips, financial aide situations as well as student activities.
