This School’s Reviews

4.0 Junior

4/15/2026

I would say the best part of my experience at Prior Lake High School has been the teachers; most, if not all of the teachers I've had here are very attentive and willing to work with students individually. This has been a constant help to me over the course of my years here.

4.0 Senior

8/16/2025

Prior Lake High School has wonderful teachers with many opportunities for support and educational advancement. Unfortunately, due to a recent levy failing to pass, the funding for many of these programs and staff has decreased significantly, leading to a reduced experience.

4.0 Senior

4/27/2025

I always loved how the faculty and students were so open to people coming up to them for help or just for someone to talk to.
