Pinnacle has a culture directed towards involvement. If you're one to join in and participate in everything you can get your hands on then this is the school for you. However, those that aren't particularly outspoken tend to not be given the same resources and opportunities. There are too many students to too little faculty to balance the needs of all students .

It has been great. The teachers are good and great school spirit and opportunities to get involved. I do wish there were more AP classes and academic oppportunities though. They do have some but not as much as some other places.

I've only spent a year here, but people are very welcoming and friendly and the academics are excellent.

In general, I think what a student gets out of school is that student puts into it. There are plenty of opportunities to move up to Honors and AP classes where the teachers and curriculum are fantastic, otherwise the education for regular classes are okay (no motivation, teachers fail to hold respec...

I got a lot out of my three years at pinnacle. There were a couple less than stellar teachers but the staff far exceeded expectations. Coaches and administrators were very kind and invested in my success. Lots of opportunity to pursue my special interests and strengths and encouragement to get bette...
