Worst experience of my life. Struggled with more than I ever thought imaginable. Anyone who says it is a good school I lying because any student I ever have talked to hates this place even if they ddon't go here. I hate providence

This school tries to show how amazing it is through test scores and how amazing their teacher ratings are, but they don't show you the pain and struggle the students go through everyday that pushes them to their breaking point. 2/10.

I liked this school at first when I was 14-15, but that isn't just the case. Having graduated from this school and attending UNCC, has really changed me for the better. I thought I was the burden most the time and just felt really alone, I wish I'd realized that it wasn't me that was problem other teachers had said, it was many external factors. I feel sorry for the students who go here, because "[they] push students to achieve above their potential. You never know how much you're capable of until someone believes in you. It's hard driving, but gets students ready for college" as some parent said below this comment. Yeah I guess so, but students need have time to explore their potential outside of school. These days colleges focus on what you do outside of school for the admissions process and do you actually care about them. If we don't have the time, how are we supposed to truly do something different just piling on all the extracurricular that Providence has to offer JUST for the college admissions rather than person interest. Some of the clubs were just doing some service hours and showing up to some meetings. I could just go on. Some were just so expensive. I fear that my sister who goes to this school will be burnt out, given a wrong perspective, and most of all treated badly because she is my sister.

This is a school that pushes students to achieve above their potential. You never know how much you're capable of until someone believes in you. It's hard driving, but gets students ready for college. Excellent experience so far!
