This school is weird and the teachers don't teach. Would not recommend coming here. You are better off homeschooling. Trust me.

This school is very ignorant and i do not like it, you are not safe at this school there’s a lot of open areas where intruders could easily come on campus. Lack of communication, the teachers are mean and yell most of the day. The 7th grade assist principal is the most unprofessional staff working at PCIS . Students are very out of control. Teachers inform on things very lately and do not show concern for any of the students on campus. Coaches have 0% respect for the diversity of all races mostly African American and Caucasian. The lunch ladies are very rude and serve slouchy food with expired milk along with rotten fruits.

The teachers don't care about mental health or physical health when you are bleeding inside and can't run. They still force you to run. The coaches write you up for the smallest things and the other teachers can't teach barely anything and if you ask for help they tell you no.

If your child attends this school please make sure that they are not afraid to tell you anything . My grandson has been bullied by his teacher severely to the point where he has to go to the doctor for anxiety now. Apparently there is not a dress code for the office staff. When my grandson was checked out was a lady wearing a cut off belly shirt working in the office. I was greeted by another lady with her saying yeah. A car almost hit my grandson in the car rider line. His teacher taunted students, pulled students up by their collars of their shirts, and take care less about her students. Whenever I was told this information about his teacher he was taken out of the school. He is now homeschooled. The office staff does not check IDs on who checks out your child. The car rider line teachers do not do this either. All they do is Scream the child's name. This is the most horrendous school that I have ever heard of. It saddens me that anyone has to go through this with their child. Some children only get attention at school. School is supposed to be a safe place in a place for learning. I can only wish that anyone's children do not go through the same experience.

I am a parent who wishes my child to have an education focused primarily on academics. The average ACT score is well below average at this school, so as a concerned parent, I began doing some research. What I found was appalling! The students are very disrespectful and seems to tolerate bullying. If you like a circus environment with drama encouraged by teachers and administrators, then you will fit in. However, if you want a serious education, put your children in a local private school or Smith's Station. Constant distractions not conducive to learning and not much focus on safety.
