I recently just finished middle school, and this is by far the best school I've been to (This was my 5th). In class, teachers really try to keep their students engaged while also trying to make sure they have fun. The school also tries to plan fun activities such as Pirates day towards the end of the year, and Core Crew as a way to help students from different grades to meet and interact with each other. The school also has an advisory system where students choose every week one class where they may need help in. Now, regarding the negative reviews that I've seen, I will say that a lot of the students aren't the best, I'd know, because a good bit of the kids were mean to me as well, but that isn't entirely, if at all, the schools fault, and instead, the students who are like that parents' fault for allowing them to act that way. Most of the bullies also do it specifically where teachers can't see them doing it, and when teachers are around, they completely change up. As for teachers, there might be 1 or 2 bad ones, but there's none that I've seen. Also, the school offers many different electives and programs/sports, such as robotics, facs, math team, German, French, Spanish, band, choir, etc., each of which that I've done has been an amazing experience. They also offer advanced classes for all core subjects and art. The school aslo doesn't bombard you with too much homework, and (at least in my experience) math homework often isn't mandatory to complete, and is moreso just practice if you need it, but I still recommend that you complete it just in case. Also, while I'm writing this, I will highly recommend that if you're up for the challenge, you should join math team. I regret not joining in 6th grade, because it's one of the most enjoyable experiences I've ever had. Overall, I'd say Pizitz, while not perfect, is by far one of the best schools in Alabama, and will miss the teachers and staff there.

Incredible school. Every teacher and faculty member has been incredible. Teachers really care about the kids and everyone makes it a positive environment.

I’ve had 2 kids go through from Kindergarten to graduation and a third almost finished. We have had an exceptional experience with academics, athletics, clubs, staff and administrators. This school system CARES about its students and the community.
