GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Alot of the teachers here show that they dont care about anything but the money. Alot of students are stuggling in many different courses and PGHS's response? let them retake it ONLINE. how is that going to help? the teachers aren't there to help with any questions, most teachers don't respond to emails unless its past-due for that said assignment. They seriously don't care. Besides admin, we live laugh love admin.

Providence Grove is just few years old so the building is super nice and updated. The teachers are very nice and the school offers a variety of classes. The guidance office also offers a lot of help and Career and College Promise free college classes.

I find it amazing that this school cares so much for it's students. It is too bad that other schools are not the same. The only complaint I have is the lack of support the JR ROTC gets from the school and parents. It would be nice to see the same support for them as the sports teams get.
