GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This is a great school district. My only complaint is I wish they would not push the honors and AP classes so much. It just puts unwanted stress on students.

Pine-Richland was a ride for me. I genuinely wouldn't say I've had too many good experiences there, so I don't have many positives to share- other than select teachers being very kind, helpful, and friendly. My main issue with it is that there is too heavy a focus on sports instead of the arts. I will also say that they do a horrible job when it comes to punishing bullies.

Overall, my experience was good, but there are definitely areas for improvement. The best part is the teachers. I've had some of the best, most caring teachers over the past 4 years. The worst part is the focus on certain sports over others. I am a swimmer and little attention is paid to our facility and team. I would like there to be equal focus on all sports, and more attention paid to the athletes who have worked hard to make it to the championships. We have had to fight for recognition and updates to our pool and locker room areas.

I am a PR grad and still have younger siblings at PR. I was not popular and by no means is my family rich. My friends were the weird ones, the misfits, and the poor kids. Pine-Richland provided a positive atmosphere for all of us. There are many clubs and activities for many different interests and...

The school goes through a new superintendent every 3 years. The Math and language teachers are awful. Bullying gets very overlooked, even though they tout how seriously they take it and that there is a no tolerance policy not true. Popular kids run this school. If your child isn't popular, they won'...
