Top-notch school. Updated curriculums moving away from older books in many classes. Great course selection and college credit opportunities. Many clubs. Too much emphasis on athletics, we wish more of those funds were spent on academics and academic oriented programs like robotics and technical classes which are restricted in their ability to learn and explore due to limited finances. Not very diverse but people tend to be open and respectful of other cultures.

I went to this school and it was the worst 3 years of my life. The teachers are mostly nice, but there's a few that are not fit to work in a school environment. The school responds poorly to suggestions. It's unsanitary. There's literally a giant hole in the tech bathroom walls with dead rats in them. The meat in the food is uncooked. And overall they tried to get us to give them money because they lack the planning to operate a school year round and people don't want to pay there taxes.

This September my daughter will be a third-grader at PBS and we all look forward to another great year there. School facility is (relatively) new and well-established, teachers and staff members are very experienced and enthuisastic, curriculums and projects are well-planned and encouraging kids' creativity, and last but not least, PTA has play an important and successful role. A great school to start!
