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.

Based on my experiences at Pittsburg high school I must say that there's benefits and disadvantages to each aspect of Pittsburg High. However, I can say that to a certain degree, Pittsburg is much more characterized in it's pros, than it's cons as a school.

Pittsburg ISD is a pretty good school overrall. I enjoy that there is school spirit and lots of friends to make. I wish that the school would upgrade their school dress code to be more lenient and not be so strict with phone rules. Lastly, there food is not that great, but I have enjoyed most of my time at Pittsburg.
