I am a new student at Penn Griffin and I have to say I love it. The school provides lots of opportunities, the students are welcoming and unique, and the academics are challenging. I have grown, learned, and connected with amazing people in the short time I have attended Penn Griffin.
Posted by a student on 9/24/2016PG administration ( principals, guidance counselors, and support staff) have no concern about the middle school students. They have created positions for staff that does not benefit the students. They have a hard time keeping teachers. My daughter had 2 math teachers first years, 3 science teachers
Posted by a parent on 6/2/2015The high school gets great ratings only because of the students that are accepted. It has nothing to do with the teachers or administration.
Posted by a parent on 5/3/2015Terrible experience. Expectations at the high school level are that students should be robots and not human. Teachers are more concerned with petty issues such as a tardy, clothing (that isn't even bad), running, taking cell phones even during lunch and after school hours and they are absolutely not
Posted by a parent on 3/31/2015My child has absolutely blossomed at Penn Griffin. It has been very challenging academically and all of the art programs (dance, chorus, etc.) are excellent. The kids here are very talented and very unique. There is great emphasis on academic excellence and there is more homework here than at other

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’ve recently moved to High Point,Nc. And looked into this school through their website, and I was really pleased. Although that quickly shut down after my daughter stumbled upon a racist video against African Americans. This was set up in the cafeteria room where the African American student is seen to be whipped on a phone app. The student is visibly uncomfortable too. This is disgusting behavior and I have yet to hear from Principal Walker. Even though I have emailed her on this serious issue. My daughter is adopted and she is an African American, and I would love for her to grow up in a Christian environment. This is not showing any of the traits HPCA claims to have. Absolutely distasteful for a Christian school to turn a blind eye on racism.Parent Review8mo ago - Wesleyan Christian Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI will admit, I have not been to this school but I have had friends who go here and I have visited for activities. As a supporter of lgbtq and equal rights, I felt very uncomfortable. I have nothing against Christians and I may sort of believe in god, but I did not enjoy when they had us pray before an activity. The kids seemed polite, but I can read people well and I could tell it was an act. Did not enjoy as a person standing from the sidelines, but maybe others will like it.Other Review8mo ago
