I LOVE MY ALMATA, I WOULD TRADE THE SUITLAND HIGH SCHOOL EXPERIENCE FOR NOTHING
parent
I will admit that I had some strong reservations about sending my son to Suitland High, due to all of the negative attention that has been floating through the media, but it had a wide a variety of tempting programs available to the students...and I decided to take a chance. Although my son has yet to finish his freshman year, I can say that this has been a wonderful first year for him. He has maintained a high GPA, joined the debate team, participated in R.O.T.C., and has run track all 3 seasons. My son has experienced some form of success in every single club and academic area. Some of his teachers offer tutorial services when he struggles. He has supervised study hall immediately after school until track practice begins, unless he has another club to attend. He has college prep courses and assistance embedded into his regular academic day. Also, if my son ever decides to play his viola again, they have a very strong orchestra program too. I could go on and on, but the biggest and best part of my Suitland experience is the fact that my son looks forward to going to school. Like every high school, there are some downsides... I wish more families/students would take part in the opportunities that Suitland has to offer. The school, or any school for that matter, can only be a strong as the families that support and invest in them.Thank you Suitland High School

Suitland High School is one of the best schools in PGCPS. We have the most programs of any school in the county. Our programs are top notch and provide great opportunities for the students. Something they can't find anywhere else. Yes, we have a reputation for fights but that was the old Suitland. Since Mr. Newman, our current principal, joined us: Fights have dropped dramatically, test scores are on the rise, and more students are succeeding in their academic careers.

I would love for the website to be updated. I am looking for current information and the website is for the 2012-2013 school year. Some of the links are outdated and some of the staff listed is no longer at the school.
