its alright, its a great school, however, I wished that it wasn't as controlling the hat thing is a joke, but they have nice teachers, only thing I wished that they could do is take more accountability for kids with lower grades (that being me) so that we can try and focus more, or I guess that's just my problem.

Being a student at Parlier High School has really been super helpful for my education. The school has dual enrollment classes, college preperness classes, cte pathways where they prepare us for future careers, and much more. My tecahers and counsolers are also why I am able to keep my grades steady. I truly just wish the people at school (student wise) were nicer and acted mature.
