1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePlainfield high school is just one of the many schools that make up the school district of Plainfield. A lot of people tend to complain about the school itself without having actually experienced going there, its always the hearsay, but I attended PHS. I had the opportunity to attend honor and advance placement classes, which I believe did their jobs; as well as teachers who helped me decide to attend university when I personally did not see my own potential, so now I can have the privilege to say I am an engineer. There are other schools in the district but just as this one is struggling to have teachers all the other schools are in the same position. I would see students who would transfer from these so called better schools like PAAAS or Barack and they would find themselves placed in the lower level classes and these same students would comment on how they would not even have a teacher for a whole school year. So this just goes to show that school isn't always what people make it seem like, whether you go to a highly rated school or not; with that being said I also believe that the schools need better funding to help their students and faculty be able to take a step towards great things.Other Review2y ago - Maxson Middle School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOkay so, I’ve been at this school for 3 years (6-8) and I was very disappointed. Don’t get me wrong some teachers are nice but that’s only very few of them. Every class I had the teachers were just rude and acted like they were better than the students, counselors weren’t better and very snobby and rude. The main principal was nice but the vice principals were horrible. Mind you this school had no fans so every day it would be sweating madness inside since it would be very stuffy inside the classrooms.Student Review1y ago - Evergreen Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school has some great teachers but lacks strong leadership to support those teachers. Parents are encouraged to participate in the PTO but the PTO is not supported in it's efforts. The very large Hispanic presence in the school encourages the leadership to cater towards that population therefore alienating the english speaking population. Every meeting takes double the time due to the translation which has discouraged english speaking parents from attending meetings.Parent Review14y ago
