I love Ponchatoula junior High. I love how they not only teach you to be more responsible but it also help you realize that you are growing up as a human being and getting ready to step in the pre-adult life. Its wonderful!

My 8th grade year at this school was extremely exciting. The staff made sure we had the right amount of discipline and fun. We knew what we had to do in order to have events, like pep rallies and fund raisers. It was overall and amazing experience. I'd love to go back and visit.
