I had a relatively good time here. I had my ups and downs like any person would. The community in the school between students is amazing. Most if the teachers are amazing there are just a few I feel like could be a little better but it may just be me and the way I learn vs their teaching style. I would if I end up back in Nebraska send my kids here.

This is truly a great school. I've gone here all 4 years of high school. You can highly see the teachers that love what they do and what they teach is a passion of theirs. Unfortunately, you can also see the teachers who teach something they are not passionate about it can highly show. Somem teacher are a little too strict as well. I understand that it is a private school however why should the fact that I am wearing a sweatshirt affect how I learn? probably because it does not. I believe they should be a lot more giving on what we wear. Like it is now a rule that the girls have to wear leggings under their skirts. Once it is not winter anymore all the girls are going to overheat, and it will be a huge problem. They need to relax on dress code and realize that if I'm wearing leggings or not or if I have on a hoodie, I still learn the same

I liked how challenging the classes were and they were designed as a college-prep school, so it made you use critical thinking. The admin are strict mostly because it is more of a prep school and also a private school.

Although Pius X HS is regarded as one of the best high schools in the state, our experience found it to be completely average at best. A few of the students are highly talented and/or academically gifted and are going on to top colleges. They are the exception though. Most students end up attending...
