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.

I like that you can take classes that are going to help you in the future when it comes to your future career. I also like how you can take dual credit and college classes during your regular school hours.

My experience at Pittsburg High School is that they have really great teachers and really great clubs. Sorry that is I liked. My experience however is really great. What I would see in changes is that I would love them to change how we learn thangs and the amount of time we get to learn the material.

Although I only attended Pittsburg High School only two years, I guess you could say it was the best and worst. It was a whole knew environment from what I was already used to, but it opened me up to things I didn't ever worry about. It also taught me about new career choices that I thought I wouldn't ever want to try out. Going to school here has changed my perspective on many laws, politics, how to handle situations and how to handle change.
