My experience at Pittsford Sutherland High School has overall been quite enjoyable and enriching. The teachers and counselors are excellent, providing help and feedback not only for the classes we're currently taking but also in preparation for our future. There are many opportunities given to interact with others and help out our community, and many clubs to help explore our interests.

I had a great experience at SHS. Most teachers created a motivating environment that encouraged discussion. My only criticism is that the funding is unevenly distributed with favoritism towards extra-curricular activities instead of classroom supplies.

It definitely a good school with a lot of decent teachers and kids. I would like to see more things done about bullying, and people making fun of others. A big thing that bothered me was people bullying people with a disability or mental disorder, and no one really noticed or did anything about it.

Overall the academics are good, however the social experience and school unity there is severely lacking after many key high school events have been taken away over the years.
