Paramus High School really opened up opportunities academically and socially. I have met amazing people, and learned from incredible teachers. My experience learning at Paramus High School has been unforgettable. I hope the excellence will continue in the years to come.
12/6/2023
One of the best parts about Paramus High School is that the budget for the arts was never cut in order to better facilitate the sports and stem program as many other schools do, considering the arts to be not as important. However I believe there should be some changes to some members of staff and their attitudes towards students and differing beliefs.
10/29/2023
Some of the best parts of my experience at Paramus High School include the variety of AP courses offer, ranging from all the AP Physics courses to AP English. However, there is a lack of certain courses I desired to take such as AP Seminar and AP Research.

As long as a student keeps an open mind when starting here and has the willingness to learn, he/she will excel. I started as an average student and when teachers saw my willingness to excel...

I am a student at PHS and I can definitely say that you can get a lot of out this school if you work hard and are motivated! PHS really tries to push the boundaries of those who want to excel. However, it does not do much to help the "bottom" of the class, who I think feel stupid compared to their h...
