Portales High School is very limited in its ability to suit the more advanced students. The only saving grace is the ability for dual enrollment. There are some teachers who are very good at their job; however, there are others who are very negative and hateful. There needs to be a more positive atmosphere.

It's a pretty easy school to go to. There are plenty of opportunities to learn but some classes are missing that could be useful. There is also not that much bullying, from my experience, at this school. Some issues I have are that the dress code is a little strict at times for things that are supposedly "satanic" and, like the community at large, people aren't the friendliest in the world and could care less about each other.

The teachers and parents need to be more involved. Focus on other activities besides sports. There's needs to be more teaching and less of playing favorites with certain people because they have the right last name. Make it fair for all students to be able to learn equally. Everyone, needs to focus on studies more.
