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.

Plainview-Elgin-Millville is an exceptional high school. The staff and teachers are excellent and care about student success. The state of the main building is average and renovation could prove to be beneficial. Certain rooms in the building itself as well as various pieces of equipment are in poor condition. However, the community is working on updating the areas of the high school in need of improvement.

I really enjoyed my time at PEM. I was a little disappointed that they were more focused on sports than their academics or preparing you for the real world past high school.

It's a pretty average high school. There are few teachers that truly left an impression on me. They focus more on sports than the arts.
