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.

The best part of Pacific High School has been the teachers and school community For the most part teachers and students are respectful. The worst parts have been food and school activities. I feel the food could be better along with activities the school puts on. I would like to see a change in more school spirit and including everyone not just certain students in things. I think things like student council should be more open to everyone and not something you have to be voted in for. I think having students decide on a food service might help as well with the food the district is feeding us. I think allowing vending machines in the school would be a good way for the school to make extra money and allow for students to have a snack and improve their academics. I think the school does a good job at helping students with academics and focusing on that but I would love college readiness classes offered to help students in that process. I don't feel there is enough support there.

The best part of my experience at pacific high school was the competition opportunities I got with the cheer team. The worst part was not enough preparation for college. I would like to see more opportunities for kids to prepare themselves for college. Also more classes and clubs people were more interested in.

Pacific and its school district have a strong sense of community- it’s amazing to be a part of! My husband and I are both alumni’s and we stayed here and raised our children in the same community so that they will have that same support in life. Once an Indian, always an Indian!
