During my time attending Polson High School I have had an amazing time. From the quiet tension in tests too the electric atmosphere during sporting events I wouldn't change a thing. The teachers being able to adapt while being themselves to help students is great and I really enjoy whenever I have the chance to have a conversation with one. Most of the student body are kind people and are willing to help if one should ask. However, the cafeteria food is very subpar and the cleanliness of the restrooms are not good. Last year the bathroom stalls had no doors and the soap dispensers were always empty and broken. I don't blame this on the faculty because there are some students that think it is funny, and if they replace them every time there were broken it would cost the school potentially hundreds of dollars but, they never tried to replace the doors to make the restroom a private place.

The teachers and faculty are involved in everything at the school and extracurricular activities. The students are very involved with supporting each other in sports and other activities. Overall I think it is a very good school

Polson High School is a very average public school. It does have some benefits such as the sports program being one of our most invested and also having many activities such as clubs. There are some disadvantages with the school being sometimes reckless with money and spending it on luxuries instead of necessities.

PHS is just like anywhere, it is what you make of it. There are not great kids and there are great kids in every school. Your perception is your reality.

If zero stars were an option that's what they'd get. My kid was threatened by another student 2 years older that they would bring a gun and pull it on her. This happe Ed on the bus ride home. The student remained in school the next day and even rode the bus home. She was in school the next day as we...

The only place I felt comfortable being myself was the music wing. Every other place was prime bullying territory. Jocks rule this place and many teachers are complicit because they were jocks in high school too.
