I have had a pretty good experience with Plainfield South. I feel like the teachers always have such good connections with the students, but not even the teachers, the subs as well. The only think that I would complain about is the football team ;). I am on the dance team and I don't like watching our school lose while I cannot do anything about it. Other than that I see the closeness that the different departments at our school have and I think it is just so cool and fun. The student participation could be better, it was really bad after covid but I do feel like it is on an uphill climb now. I have loved my experience other wise though.

The teachers were great for the most part. Some parents more involved than others. Safety was an issue a bit in the district. Lots of diversity.

My high school experience hasn't been bad by any means. Sure there are things that need to be fixed here (most notably the lunch as well as art programs), but for the most part it's good. This school has provided me with the ability to meet new people and excel in general education classes. I've had some great teachers over the years too. Again, for the most part it's a good school.

There are many dedicated teachers at PSHS. Our 5 kids had great experiences at the school.

As a former student, this school is the worst. The only way you would actually learn something is by taking all AP classes, if you take any non AP you literally will learn nothing because they don’t care at all. The only teachers I’ve met that actually care were at WILCO which is a whole separate pr...

We have been residence of Plainfield for 20 years. Plainfield South was an awesome experience for our 3 children and for us. All children had many great teachers and a few clunkers, but you show me in school and that will be true. All three of our children are in colleges and were more then well pre...
