Education: For me, I'm not too disappointed with the education I got as an AP/IB student. The upper level teachers are pretty motivated and supportive (especially the AP STEM department), and have helped me achieve admission into my reach schools. As for the Honors/Regular coursework experience, I've heard horror stories of teachers openly allowing students to fail, not showing up to class, making weird sexual remarks, and disappearing midway through the year. Administration: Yikes. There's one person in the upper administration who publicly shames the students, pretty much harassing them for minor faults like dress code, jogging around (4 minute passing time for such a big campus is pretty diabolical), and just having harmless play with friends. I honestly AVOIDED them like the black plague and everyone else did too, except the kids that purposely tried to get on their good side. The other admins are pretty cool, I got to know them while I did office aide and they're generally good people. Many don't like the principal, but I think she is just fine.Social: In my experience, the social culture is a hit or miss. Generally speaking, the kids aren't very open minded. Your best bet of finding your friends is to join a group of some sort (sport/music/arts/etc) in freshman year. Very cliquey. I found that its quite easy to get singled out, it often feels like you know everyone but majority of the time, they're emotionally unavailable. For the amount of people at this school, you'll only find a very select few to socially connect with. OVERALL: Palo wasn't the worst, but definitely not the best. I've had good and bad times, and have made memories I'll forever cherish here, but if I were to reel back time, would I choose it again? Most likely not.

My experience with Sig Rogich Middle School has been incredibly upsetting, and I feel obligated to warn others. This school has serious issues with professionalism, fairness, and inclusivity.One of the most disturbing patterns I witnessed was how certain staff members consistently found reasons to pick on specific students, especially students of color. Minor issues were exaggerated or unfairly punished, while similar behavior from others was overlooked. This kind of targeting was not only demoralizing but deeply harmful to students’ self-esteem and sense of safety.To make matters worse, racist behavior by staff was either brushed aside or completely ignored by administration. Instead of addressing complaints seriously, the school often made excuses or shifted blame. There was no accountability, and the culture allowed these injustices to continue.The lack of empathy, fairness, and support from both teachers and leadership has made this environment toxic. No student should feel singled out, unsafe, or unwelcome at school.I strongly advise parents to look elsewhere if they value equity, respect, and their child’s well-being.

This school and all of the staff have been incredible. My children are excelling and enjoy going to school. The parents have a lot of opportunities to be involved, and the school is constantly providing hands-on events and activities to build community and make learning fun. Teachers are communicative and easily reached. The principal is awesome and engaged in every aspect of the school, creating a warm and inviting environment for students and teachers alike. Moving into this area was the right choice for my family.
