At my time at Paul V. Moore, the teachers and administrators have done an excellent job and allowing students to succeed and helping them to do so. I am extremely grateful for my experiences at Paul V. Moore and the successful future that the staff has led me to.

The best part of my school is the athletics. Out teams rank well and have dedicated sports. I would change that there is now NO dress code and the way people are dressing is not always appropriate for school. Out of the teachers are great, but the administration could use a little spike in the kindness amd helpfulness department. 8 out of 10.

I am going on my third year at Paul V. Moore and dread everyday of it. The students there are immature, and I feel that faculty and staff there choose "favorites" giving every student an unfair advantage constantly. The learning there is satisfactory, but most of all it is an unhappy, place to be.
