Small town community where every kid in school knows each other and pitches in whenever a child or family needs help or support.

I enjoyed my time at Pine Grove Area High School overall. It is a small town school so everyone sort of knows each other which makes the experience more enjoyable.

Some teachers are great. A few of the teachers i have learned under gave me a new perspective on life, people, and all of the rest. On the adverse side of things, some teachers are not very good and do not take their job as seriously. Oftentimes under these teachers, students are subject to meaningless work and useless assignments that are either unrelated to the class or useless for education
