I have enjoyed my time at Pell City High School. I have been participating in Key Club and Interact Club. I have been able to be a part of the varsity volleyball team. They offer a great variety of dual enrollment and AP courses which are very helpful with college preparation.

The best part of our school is the academics, specifically our Dual Enrollment and AP classes. I would like to see our food and student culture improve.

I loved Pell City when I started coming in 6th grade but every year the rules have gotten stricter when it comes to certain things. I love my phone, but I honestly don't use it when it comes to school. Phones is the reality of this generation. Some people need to understand that not everyone is addicted to their phone, and they shouldn't yell at us when we're walking into the school every time. I would love to see changes in the school district. This year is my last year in Pell City, and I hate but love to leave. I halfway understand the dress code that we have but if there is a tiny hole above our knee, we shouldn't be dress coded and or sent home and have to miss class.

Our children came from a Talladega County school over 5 years ago. I just had a child enter college and another just started 11th grade here at PCHS this year. I can tell you they were not prepared for the curriculum when we first moved. Their grades went from straight A's to C's and they did not ge...

Since new administration has been in place school has become a Great School. School still needs more community support and parental involvement.
