I have been going to Paradise High School for 13 years. I have never had problems with the school district. They have great teachers, the teachers really try to connect with the students. The superintendent listens to the parents problems and the students problems, the superintendent also ask questions to see how we can make the school district better. One of the things I would say that needs to be changed offering more classes to get you ready for college.

I like Paradise high school because of the small town feel. The only thing I don't like is that there are a lot of strict rules that affect the school spirit.

I love Paradise. The teachers can be challenging but all they want is for you to do well when you go to college and in high school. They are all willing to work with you if you don't understand something. Administration is friendly. Everyone of the staff is polite and friendly! Love it here!
