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.

PCSS needs to do better. The school focuses on academic rigor above everything else but fails to listen to students and adequately address mental health concerns. I've spent several years at this school and have had to fight administration and other individuals to respect my mental health diagnosis despite their knowledge of it.

The college readiness has been the best the best part of the school, as you must take a college prep class junior year and senior year (until all of your applications are in), but the worst is the support, as the two teachers have high expectations and low abilities to give more help to the students. I would like to see more classes offered, as we do not offer most classes other schools in the area do.
