Pike Co is one of the best school systems in Ga. We feel that the education and safety of our kids is second to none. I wouldn't weigh to much into student commentary about things they really have know clue about; administration and such. Steve, Satisfied Parent

Pike County is slipping fast. A few years ago I would have considered PCHS as a very good institution of learning, but due to recent events I have wholly changed my mind in this regard. The teachers are still some of the best, but they're being driven off by an inept and unfocused administration who's

There is a lack of funding from the Federal Government, sure, but it is made all the worse by the idiotic choice of spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on sports, leaving the students with no books and keeping the staff disgruntled.

Pike County is a good school as well as a good comunity. It is possible to have both good academics and a successful athletic program, other school systems do and we will as well. We have experienced one successful year in all sports not just football. At least three kids have scholarships and have

We also have some teachers, as most all schools do, who concentrate complaining and not on solutions. Our whole nation is strapped for funding from the Fed. Gov. down to each of us as individuals. Lets offer our kids the best the world has to offer, both in academics and extra curricular activities. All work and no play makes unhappy children. Read less

I am a fairly new PCHS teacher. My fellow teachers amaze me with their dedication. The students amaze me with their respect and behavior. But the students have no inate desire to learn. They are bombarded with paranoia concerning discipline and trying to make a mark amidst the football program's overhanging
... Read more shadow. The administration concerns itself with discipline and NOTHING else. The football program really does receive first priority. I denied it for a long time and thought it was just local gossip. It's true. My fellow teachers fight for basic supplies and fundraise for calculators while the FB team enjoys anything it needs. Such a waste of a really good body of students. I hope the new Superintendant comes through and puts teachers and students first. Read less

Dear parent, the one who wrote back in feb. About how great this school system is just because her daughter was on home coming court, how do you feel about the great superindendent now and the boe. This school system is nothing to brag about except for most of the teachers, they do a great job.

I have a smart daughter and she's doing very well academically. But anytime I need to get some information from the school and I call and ask them for it I'm given the runaround. What is up with these people? We are the parents. I don't care if the kid didn't fill it out first, I am the parent and

I do not respect a system that values football over everyting else. Leaking roof, outdated teaching materials, poor quality maintenance, good and experienced teachers abandoning the school all for football. Will the fact that you have a good team get my daughter into a first class college? I doubt it

And by the way, it would be nice for the teachers and administrators to speak standard english. It makes a good example. I have to stop myself from correcting the english of many of the staff members. Read less
