The faculty and the help they gave throughout the school years have been a great source of support to me, if what you care about most is the people there.

Pioneer High School is a small school but allows for many opportunities. This school offers ROP programs and I believe that the dental assisting program given there is one of the most beneficial for anyone who wants to pursue a career in dentistry. Pioneer also provides college readiness such as AVID program and Horizons office support. The school offers resources to their students at all times helping them expand and allow themselves to explore their high school and career life.

It is just ok. I think the teachers are pretty good at least the ones I've had. The school is small but it is still ok.

Teachers are phenomenal, counselors are so academically involved in what you do, and we have the administration who greets us...

I attended here in the late 80s when this site wasn't around. What made this great was the friends I made and still keep. Some of the teachers are really good. However, some of them when I was there didn't know what they were doing, in particular the teacher who taught Math Analysis. I guess due to...
