Pioneer High School Reviews
Rating 3.76 out of 5 371 reviews
Pioneer is hard to evaluate because I feel like there are two extremes. Some teachers are the best I’ve had, while some mad me lose love for the subject. I had the opportunity to skip to a higher level class in the English program and the class has been my favorite of all time. The culture and content of the course is well-cultivated and the teacher truly cares for the students and their education. However, my friends in the level I skipped have had nothing but negative things to say on their classes. One of the teachers is actively taking out struggles in their personal life on students and gives impossible amounts of work each day. The administration is similar - some truly seem to care for the students and their education while some treat students as if they have responsibilities of adults and maturity of toddlers. Pioneer is good for a public school, but could benefit from workload regulation and teacher evaluation by students and parents.
I would say my Pioneer High School experience was overall good. I went through a lot of friendships and relationships. I will say when coming to Pioneer I was undecided where to go and i wish that I went to a different school like Huron, considering both of my friends died by going go to Pioneer ( well I wouldn’t say by going but the safety and resources of Pioneer). Kids are freely to walk off of campus without a pass or any type of security. Yes the hall monitors will ask and the students will respond but they’re is no specific verification if the student is actually allowed to go off campus. The safety of my friends or my fellow classmates is something I would like to see change like getting verification that I can go off campus for Lunch or i can go home. Yes in college you have more freedom and things of that nature but in high school or at least for a freshmen or sophomore it should e more strict
Pioneer needs to work on the school culture. There have been racial and bullying incidents that were not addressed strongly enough, and without enough follow-up.
