Compared to other schools I've been to this one is definitely the best one! For as long as I've been to this school there's surprisingly not a lot of fights or any bullying I've heard about. The school lunches are certainly better than other schools offering a lot of options each day! (The salads are really good btw.) All the staff I've interacted with are very respectful and caring, you can tell the staff love doing their job and appreciate their students. The schoolwork is definitely less harsh than my old middle school and you definitely don't have to worry about having a lot of homework if you pay attention in class. There's also a ton of clubs and sports/activities that are very welcoming. If you are new or a 7th grader just know that you don't have to be nervous as long as you are responsible. You don't have to be extremely perfect at each class to get an A, all of them should be decently easy for the average middle schooler! :)

This school offers the top academic and music programs in the area, and is one of the best high schools in the state. Students also have great opportunities in athletics and drama. The administration, faculty and community are dedicated to providing the best for every student.

This school has really changed over the past 2 years. I'm wondering if it is a principal leadership issue. We've been apart of this school for many years and have heard about and seen a rapid decline in a number of areas. Especially the overall climate. We've always felt like we've had great teachers for our kids, but teachers and aides that used to always be welcoming and warm now appear different. If things don't improve, we will look at having our remaining child attend a different PV school. Makes us sad.
