Through my 4 years at Ponderosa High School, I have has nothing but smooth sailing. I have been shown support in my academics as well as my athletics. I have been given so many opportunities to grow my self and my skills. My councilors and teachers have given me so much help. Now that I am graduating I am over joyed that I am prepared for college thanks to my teachers and administration.

Overall, I was very happy with the choi...

What should be communicated in person is done through email.Teachers are resentful of the entitled kids who drive way...

Unfortunately this school lacks a positive and respectful culture. There are some good teachers such as those in AP/Honors English. Great drama Dept and teacher. But mainly there is a bare minimum effort by many teachers or perhaps they’re overworked. The staff teachers and students don’t seem to ha...
