Over all I would not suggest anyone take their child to this school. It saddly is like any other small town school more concerned with the sports programa then they are the academic programs. It would seem the school has quit a few sponsers and fun rasing programs to keep the sports programs going. Which is great, but I feel they need to put some of the effort into providing a wider range educational programs for the children. On top of that the only art based program that gets funding from anyone is the martching band.

During my 4 years at this school, the academics were out of line. The school had no emphasis on cursive nor proper grammar. The 7 and 8th grades were (if not still are) lacking motivation on top of that all assignments were repetitive "go over it for 45 minutes in class then finish 1-2 pages at home". Further more I was getting D-F's attending PCMS now I have A-B's in high school and I am very active. In conclusion The only thing this school is lacking is motivation and good teaching methods.
