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.

My personal experience with Piqua High School is great. I don't actually attend Piqua High School, as I attend Edison Community College, however, I did play football for them as well as get registered through Edison Community College through Piqua. The advisors, principal, athletic director, and coaches are wonderful to work with. They heave helped me throughout every process in becoming a new student and was welcoming. Communication has been on point. When I have emailed, I usually receive a response with hours.

A lot of students do not get the help they need here & are often pushed along or ignored by staff. Not enough counselors, extremely hard to set up appointments with one. Theres also a sex scandal every single year.

Not a good place what so ever. Im currently a sophomore and hate it. Teh teachers dont care u exist. If u miss school teachers half the time refuse to give u your work u missed because they dont know what there lessons were and give u bad grades. Teachers openly let kids do what ever they want and half the time just give u a websites name and pretty much say figure out how go do the things on your own and play around on there phones all day. There are very few teachers that actully do There job. Some teachers even laugh along with bullies that are hurting people. Iv seen kids with drugs and alcohol not get in trouble. Etc. There are so many bad things. The only good things are the music programs and art programs which are a 10/5. But the rest of the school ruins it

I graduated from Piqua High School in May of 2013. I went in to high school having no self-confidence. Through my experiences at Piqua High School I have gained that self-confidence that is crucial to success. I look back on the great education I received from several great teachers. These teachers...

I graduated from PHS in 2013. Students that need help can go get help on Tuesdays and Thursdays where snacks are offered along with student and teacher tutors. Both the high school and junior high offer a wide range of classes, high school students can participate in Post-Secondary and take classes...
