9/30/2025
If you would like your child to attend a competitive college, don't come here. The college resources and counseling are very poor. Clearly, they expect most students to stay in California or go the community college route. Also, the sports culture is extremely toxic with hazing.
2/1/2025
I graduated from Petaluma High School in 2002, and now my kids are attending PHS. PHS keeps getting better, offering more electives, getting kids ready for college, and really encouraging kids to follow their dreams.
10/15/2024
At Petaluma High, I have been offered a range of courses, clubs, and opportunities. I appreciate that the staff encourages us to be well prepared for college. What I'd like to see more of is more "school spirit."

Daughter felt uncomfortable, as a person of color she was discriminated and made fun of.. she was not being supported throughout her high school journey

10 out of 10! Mrs. Grainger is amazing.
12/20/2019
Academically it has been better than anticipated. The honors and AP classes are strong, most with excellent teachers who truly engage students and seem to love what they do. There are also some fantastic non-honors classes and teachers. But, I can also see how it could be very easy for a kid to sail...
