Throughout my years at Princess Anne, I have experienced support from staff members, great coaches, and resources that I can use any day of the week. Princess Anne is a safe place for any student to attend and I am going to miss being a cavalier.

It's a great school for academics, clubs, and meeting new people but it is an old school and the cleanliness is not the best.

Princess Anne High School's IB Programme has prepared me for college in a way that I feel few other high schools in the area can. It is a lot of writing, and a rigorous program, but I feel very prepared for a difficult college.
